Anybody else watching Live on Patrol? (MPLS - St. Paul)

[Fireball]

They just had a chase and crash. Car occupants are not pleased.

Start around 12:50AM (Central time) for the chase)

They live stream it on YouTube once or twice a week. Usually Friday night + one other night. If you set the notification on YouTube it will let you know when they are live.

It's the St. Paul sheriff (whatever county that is, Ramsey?) plus a semi-retired detective who ride around for 3-4 hours. On a 15 second delay but basically unfiltered. They have a lot of stuff where they wind up going over to MPLS, as was the case with the chase last night.

Kinda like the over the hill gang rides again, so I can relate... XD

They're on now (Saturday evening)

It's like Wilford Brimley and Walter Brennan moseyin into the Sunny Acres Rest Home to foil a Rascal Scooter gang led by Hume Cronyn...

They were on again for a little today, tour of the RR yards they indicated.

They'll be back next Friday at 9:11PM (Central) for their next ride along.

This video shows the two guys you're riding along with:

Tour of the St. Paul RR yards (BNSF Railroad) runs from 4:00 for about 55 minutes.

Kinda interesting as usually we only see railroads from out along the right of way.

Live on Patrol starts at 8:11PM tonight (Friday 4/2). Central time I do believe.

30 minutes to go.

Here's a short video to watch in.the meantime:

 

[Fireball]

They're Live on Patrol and it's rainy in the Twin Cities

Lots of lightning. They just pulled over to check the radar.

 

[Fireball]

This is pretty educational. They are talking about "ThunderJackets" which calm dogs during storms.

Maybe this: https://thundershirt.com/

Lots to learn on the Interweb.

 

[Fireball]

Friday night and they're on.

 

[Fireball]

They're taking their mid-patrol break for bathroom + a cheese dog, then will reboot for a few more hours.

Relatively busy night. Collared a car thief, lots of other adventures as it warms up (47° which is a Minnesota heat wave)

Edit:

Aaaand they're back live!

 

[Fireball]

They're live again.

Some looting going on somewhere and they are chasing em off.

Not sure what's going on.

(Edit) went to bed early yesterday and hadn't watched news all day. Looks like some shooting and subsequent unrest:

National Guard deployed.

Hard to tell if it is isolated or widespread.

This feed has pretty regular updates:

Back in quiet St. Paul

Sheriff Bob says probably curfews for a couple days.

Going back to bed. I'd rather be out camping somewhere away from all this.

They just popped up on the air at midnight:

Well, Monday night and they just appeared. They say there's a bunch of protests planned, most in MPLS, some elsewhere around the area.

We shall see...
