Broke down and shots fired

New Year's Eve. Used to sound that way here until this latest one.
 
Detroit is a hot mess. Their emergency services personnel tolerate WAY more than anyone should have to.
 
I like that reporter's style though.

Im still surprised Detroit gets away with all of this.

What keeps those providers working in an environment like that?

Right? somethimg is keeping them there, but what? It sure isn't love for the city, or a great equipment.

They must have an outstanding retirement

The Belltown neighborhood has gotten a little rough. A lot of stabbings and shots fired outside those clubs. There's gang violence and fights south of the city too. The Rainier Valley and South King County are always good for some Knife and Gun Club type calls.

I ran some great trauma calls in Skyway. ;)
 
Yeah, things get hot in LA they drive N on I-5, stay in Sacramento, then Portland, then Seattle.
 
I have not been on a shooting or stabbing that wasn't self inficted in 3 years, nor have I seen a single gang banger. Why? cause I moved to an area of the US that is safer and the local LE comes down HARD on crime.

You're making my decision to come down there harder and harder :lol:
 
I've worked both rural and urban, and hearing a lot of gunshots on new years is far from uncommon.
