Live New Orleans Police Scanner & listener reports

All I've heard is that most of the buses turned around, though some made it to the superdome. Whatever it is, I can't imagine it's too bad, since the officer at the superdome said that more officers weren't needed at this time. I'd be careful about drawing too many conclusions, since we're seeing only a VERY limited about of info. Not saying something isn't up, but just to be careful about drawing conclusions yet.
 
"Appears that it will be a little bit before the general gets there.

He was in the Superdome... it appears we may have a situation"
 
I'm not sure how to work this, but I don't think it's most efficient to have a play-by-play here. Perhaps we can reserve our transcription/summary to one every 30 minutes or something. I agree, this is VERY interesting to listen in to, but with the situation that is New Orleans, I think we're going to hear a lot of interesting/newsworthy info. Just trying to avoid a huge thread... Also, please be sure not to repeat what another member has posted (not picking on anyone in particular!). We really should try to avoid redundancy. Thanks!
 
"0145 hours, soldiers shot in upper leg, solider has medical personell attending to him at present break, civilian that shot the soldier has been cornered in a locker room and personell are attempting to extricate him at this time"

One soldier shot at the superdome

Yup, I was just going to post the same thing. Very sad. Is that what it's down to down there?

Also, I don't know what everyone is listening to this in but I'm using VideoLAN and it actually says what channel its on.

Just as I was writing that, I just heard that soldier was shot in upper leg area. The guy who shot him is cornered in a locker room.

Yeah I agree. Sounds good. Although I did just repeat something by one minute. :)
 
The scanner is relatively quiet. I keep hearing "car-to-car" which I can only assume means they mostly talking off of the scanner frequency. If anything significant happens, I'll post it.

The only major thing I have noted other than the national guard troop being shot is that they plan on escorting the remaining Children's Hospital staff out of the city and possibly taking the site over as a base of operations as it still has a working LAN line and air conditioning.
