What is Quantico Bravo? Are you referring to the Fire Response talkgroup (32202)?

Thanks,
Dave

So that's what that talkgroup is called! Thanks. I've heard it used several times, but could never figure out its name or specific use. It did seem like it might have been for mutual aid calls.

I'll give it a name in the database now.

Loudoun Co. - Strange Event

At about 0630, an LCPS bus driver reported that she was traveling east-bound on RT7. She observed a marked Loudoun Co. Sheriff's office cruiser on the right shoulder about a quarter mile before the Hillhigh Orchard. She is certain that she ran over a weapon (the word "gun" was also used) with the school bus (the actual bus number was given). Immediately after this she witnessed a white male dressing in a sweatshirt, hat and blue shorts walking alongside the road close to a gold colored sedan.

Sheriff's office is currently doing a status check for all units. Sheriff's deputies are currently looking for the gold sedan as well as the cruiser. Deputies might have a possible tag; although the tag they just ran comes back to a blue Honda.

Clarke Co. was also contacted to search on their side.

UPDATE: Around 0750, all midnight units accounted for. Deputies and a Purcellville officer are out with a male that matches that description off Berlin Turnpike.

Someone with the sheriff's office just called in to report an unsecured cruiser in Lucketts.
