We dont get many of them here, not much with fire works, now knives and guns on the other hand.

I worked the 4th this year and it def was busy, spoke with a few of the ems guys and they said there were a lot of shootings this year.

Two more actuals tonight. One at a school where the "suspect" hurt his knee & an ambulance was called. Guess who's going to be paying for that ride & ER visit & maybe even an out of court settlement since he was knocked to the ground by a LEO when he ran....

We had a few of those alleged police brutality cases tonight as well wonder where they will wind up going if anywhere.
