All I can say about tonight is wow. Definantly no shortage of things to listen to.
All the usual stuff plus...
1. Both John Randolph and Southside Regional on full diversion and the medic units having to go to Richmond tied them up so you had Ft. Lee and Colonial Heights repond on seperate mutual aid calls. The one with the Ft. Lee medic unit, they transported to Southside (both Southside and John Randolph had since re-opened) but once they got there they said they would be enrout to John Randolph because Southside was back on diversion. By the sound of the fire dept they sounded like they just got off a call themselves. When they had engines respond to the EMS calls (where they had the mutual aid medic units) they were talking about different equipment being on different engines.
2. Hopewell Police Dept. had to respond mutual aid to Petesburg for an armed robbery. Peterburg was having their own wild night and had just about all their units tied up on other priority calls.
and lastly
3. Hopewell tried to stop a vehicle and ended up in pursuit. Went down Oaklawn Blvd (Rt. 36) and turned onto Jefferson Park Rd and went into Prince George County. Hopewell stayed in pursuit the whole time even when joined by Prince George Units (the PG units took the lead). The pursuit lasted a good 25 minutes with speeds around 80 and no traffic. From Jeffereson Park they kept straight onto Courthouse Road (Rt. 106) and crossed over Prince George Dr. (Rt. 156) and then turned onto Old Stage Rd. Followed Old Stage the whole way until it met up with James River Dr. (Rt. 10) when they turned east on Rt. 10. From there the pursuit went on for another couple of miles or so until a Prince George unit used stop sticks on the suspect at Heinz Road. The suspect continued a little ways and then turned into a driveway where they bailed. They got the passenger soon after he bailed. One of the pursuing Hopewell officers was a K9 unit. They were able to track the driver and ended up tracking him back to the car where they nailed him. Oh yeah, by the middle of the way down Old Stage Road, Hopewell was out of radio contact.
