I’m not sure where else to post this. Do you know what is happening on Spear Ave? At least 10 first responders were there at 3 am and it’s roped off with caution tape now. Police still there interviewing people. Somebody was rushed off in ambulance with sirens. It’s near the round about.
I’m calling APD now to see if I can get some answers for you.
I was listening to the scanner, stabbing and cpr was in progress, large party lots of aggressive people

Oh no, that is awful. There was a lot of yelling, it sounded aggressive.
