Weekend Update Pt 1 - Spot News

As usual, I've been a tad tardy with my updates around here. Its been a busy week, lots of things i've shot have been advance and they just get forgot by the wayside in posting. That and I've shot my fair share (and then some) of video in the past week....

So I've been living and dying by the scanner of late. Caught two spot news happenings.



Athens-Clarke County firefighter Brian Coggins, left, is covered by water mixed with insulation while overhauling an apartment fire Hillside Condominiums at 125 Berlin Ct in Athens on Thursday, September 4, 2008.

Coggins and his partner on Rescue 4 knocked that down fast. When i stepped out of the car, there was billowing black smoke. By the time i got the camera up, the fire was out.

Cindy Schnavley, center, cradles the head of a pedestrian who struck by a pickup truck at the corner of East Campus Road and Hooper Street on Friday, September 5, 2008.

The pedestrian was okay. Looked worse then it was. Of course I was nearly nailed in a crosswalk the other day.
