Great to hear some LEA enforcing 36. Who? Last I heard CHP were too afraid; and the chase it was westbound. What LEA is westbound on 36? I see FOPD in the pics. Mile marker 15 would have been somewhere deep in Carlotta.
It ended at 5.3 on carlotta
I once saw a CHP map of 36. Between Carlotta and Platina it was blank except for the note, “Thar Be Dragons”.
Snort!
To much holiday spirit.
I see and heard this one at 10, but shortly after 6 pm around bridgeville mm 25, there was some other incident where the police had lights going east then west then east again, do u have any info about that?
