No sorry, not at the moment. Will keep you in mind for the future though...

Anyone else here the "code 90" called last night by Armadale 1st? (i think) Car V Truck - one fatal, one trapped on South West Hwy, Byford. Rescue 6-4 and many others were sent for the trapped person, or so I thought. So I am heading there (from Warwick!) and about 5 minutes out they go......

Including the trusty News@Night van! Dam buggers slipped by again - happened last night too I heard...

We are a little concerened - we have been told media will be given equipment which we can access filtered information, but we have heard it can have delays of about an hour or so which will make it hard to get the shots. Andre has built up lots of very useful contacts over the years so that should h...

Welcome Turbo, I thought each channel had their own reporters that went out and did what you describe you do. Do you drive a marked vehicle so we know you are there. During the day they have about 7 camera crews per station, each with their own reporters - but at night, to cut costs, we film and th...

I take it VKI are not Digital yet??

At least one seems to get stolen every new years eve in the crowds.

No, not yet - though I believe TRG, Gang Response etc are already testing/using it???

What are examples of stuff you are after, and what areas are available to you? Do you guys have access to 2ways or UHF CBs or anything? We cover from Mandurah to Quins Rocks but will go further if appropriate (2x fatal, Jack Van Tongeran arrest etc) "News worthy" stuff is, as bad as it so...

No, it was being "monitored" by a priority 3 car on the correct side of the road. The police lights were on - to be honest - thats probably the only reason we saw him!

Yep got him/them! Yay! He tried to spit on me!

Short pursuit occured on Graham Farmer Fwy - Chased by JK-102 - Priority 2 ONLY authorised - went into East Pde - Ran Red Lights - told to abort! VKI on Channel 34 got the report from others and told all cars NOT TO PURSUE the trail bike.... :roll: Why would they do this if the bike runs red lights...

I have been a member for a while but its been ages since I have been on here (to be honest I forgot about this site! :oops: ) Thought I would introduce myself. I work for News @ Night. There are 3 of us, Andre (boss), Simon and myself (Reece). Our job is to collect news vision for all the TV station...

I heard differently,.

The guy was a big dude (90kg), put up a fight/ran so the police had to take him down. He hit his head on the pavement when they tried to stop him. Unfortunate accident.

Someone stole a portable I think... Its scary how much it disrupts the police.
