By Billie Owens
A motorcycle vs. deer accident is reported at 4092 Lockport Road, Elba. The rider has a minor leg injury. Elba fire and Mercy medics are responding. The location is east of Graham Road.
It has to be a whole lot more than you are reporting. Two Troopers, a Sherrif and an ambulance have flown by on main st. Elba within the last 15 minutes. Lights and sirens at full. Speed at least 80. Check your facts again, please.
At the same time there was an erratic driver reported going down 98. That vehicle apparently turned on chapel st. There was only one trooper and one ambulance at this call. The rest went to chapel st.
If troopers and deputies go whizzing by in order to apprehend an erratic driver who happens to be in the vicinity of an accident which I report off the scanner, it's not something I would post. If I posted every erratic driving complaint, and typically law enforcement goes after them swiftly or else the scoffs vanish, I would have little time for anything else. I realize you were alarmed by the coincidence, but more fact checking wouldn't have changed anything.

Depends on who should do the fact checking, like Mary Jo checking her facts before jumping all over you about this.
