I got from the victim. He's 32-years-old. I'm going to need the extent of the injuries when you get a chance, okay? Say that again? I'm going to need the extent of the injuries and the person, 32-year-old male, right? 10-4. He's having, he has lower back pain and he's hitting his heels, obviously.

Streets with bike lanes have it almost impossible to allow drivers to pull over to let emergency vehicles pass. Whose crazy decision was this in city planning?

Fire's out but you can see how charred it is inside there...feel bad for the people above and below too having to deal with smoke/water damage
