On October 19th 2023, I filmed a massive police and fire response to a shooting in north Seattle, at the Golden Gardens dog park. Details are still sketchy, but it seems to have been a confrontation over a stolen car that led to four people being shot, one fatally. Two of the victims drove to another location where a second call was set-up.

On a lighter note, this video briefly features one of my crow friends! Usually they wait by my house so I can feed them peanuts, but this time they found me a few blocks away and followed me all the way back home!

This video also features 11 different SPD responses, which I’m fairly sure is a personal record. It does make me wish there was more variation / variety in the cruisers, but I can’t complain too much. Aid 31 and Medic 31 also showed off the old and new style ambulances used by Seattle FD. Usually Aid 31 is in a new rig as well, but it must have been in the shop.

I also captured some footage of Medic 44, which I didn’t notice until I was reviewing the video to add captions. This video already took 30 minutes to process and 3 hours to upload, so I’ll just upload the Medic 44 clip separately (https://youtu.be/FIQbQvCOpKU).

I was glad to get some footage of a box-style AMR rig responding – I almost missed it since they were stopped at a red light with no lights/sirens, then suddenly turned them on and started responding.

Thanks for watching, and happy Friday!
