"Occupy" protests downtown Seattle

If you're not monitoring SPD W and TACs, you're missing out.

Thrown beer bottles, surrounding the Sheraton entrances and garage...chants in the background, etc.

Multiple false emergency channel button pushes.

It was interesting listening Tuesday. As an event photographer I would have liked to have gotten some images

 

[martidav]

Exactly.
I once sold some photos to KOMO after listening my way to a nearby fire when I lived in Ballard.

Working downtown, I've shot a few of Occupy's gatherings when I get off work. Nothing as good as you could shoot, so I just showed my wife, which was a mistake as I get put in timeout for taking the "risk."

Occupy Seattle plans march to University Bridge today

Synopsis: Apparently they are planning to take over the montlake bridge and the police won't be clearing them from the streets until they get out of hand.

Should make for some decent listening & photos.

Based on history, it should be on SPD N, SPD TACS, UW Admin, UW 1 and UW 2.

1) Occupy is still a thing? I thought they gave up a year ago.

2) Why the need to blur out your scanner displays. Is Seattle PD a secret?
