Shortly before 9 PM, a Milwaukee County Sheriff's Office (MCSO) Patrol Division deputy exited his squad vehicle on I-43/894 eastbound at 60th Street to remove debris from the freeway. Moments later, his squad was struck from behind by another vehicle driven by an impaired driver who subsequently acknowledged to deputies that he had been drinking alcohol earlier. Approximately three to four minutes later, as other MCSO squads responded to this crash, a second squad stopped ahead of the crash scene in preparation of closing lanes of traffic. Before he could exit his vehicle, it was struck by another driver who later told deputies he did not realize a lane closure was imminent.

While no one was injured in either crash and the first squad struck sustained minor damage, the driver of the first striking vehicle was examined by medical first responders as a precaution. The second squad that was struck sustained significant damage and has been removed from service. So as to avoid any conflict of interest, the Greenfield Police Department, not MCSO, will investigate both crashes and determine whether or not to refer either crash to the Milwaukee County District Attorney’s Office and if so, for what charges.

The aftermath of these crashes could have been much worse. It should go without saying that you shouldn’t drive under the influence. Additionally, though, Wisconsin, like many other states, recently observed public safety crash responders. The Hoan Bridge was even lit as part of this acknowledgment. Part of this annual observance is a reminder to the public that when you see first responders in public safety vehicles stopped ahead of you, the smartest, safest thing to do — and the law — is to move over or slow down to accommodate those first responders and protect them, the people or issues they may be responding to, and, of course, yourself and any other driver that may be approaching them.

BREAKING! Part of Luigi Mangione's manifesto has been released:

“To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Downtown Los Angeles is divided into neighborhoods and districts, some overlapping. 🏙

Most districts are named for the activities concentrated there now or historically, such as the Arts, Fashion, Banking, Theater, Toy, and Jewelry Districts.
