My daughter was on her way here and they had a bus pulled over on Polenta right at Steel Bridge. Cops were still arriving as she passed. Any one know what went on. The bus driver was outside the bus and a little boy was on the steps. Hope to God no one was hurt, I am pretty sure it was an elementary bus.
I don't know for sure, but I know bus drivers do have cell phones and are known to call the police when they have an unruly student. The police will come and take the child back to the school and then either have the parent pick them up or the police will take the child home!
Technically unless it is a life or death situation police who arrive on the scene do not offer medical assistance, hence the reason the fire department is dispatched to accidents as some members are actually trained as what is termed "First Responder" As for police cars saying EMS on them, I can honestly say I haven't noticed that on any of the ones I have seen.

Truth be known you could wait for hours some days when it comes to highway patrol or sheriff's deputy!
THANK YOU!IF YOU WAIT ON THE JOCO SHERIFF DEPT YOU COULD BE THERE FOR A WHILE! ALSO WHEN WE CALL CENTRAL TO FIND OUT ETA OF SHP THE RESPONSE IS ALWAYS THE SAME,,,,,, 10 TO 15 MINS AND AS FAR AS EMS BEING ON THE SIDE OF ANY LAW-ENFORCEMENT VEHICLE,, I DONT KNOW WHERE THOSE VEHICLES ARE AND IVE BEEN IN THIS FOR QUITE A WHILE, NOT JUST ON A VOLUNTEER LEVEL IM ALSO A CAREER FIREMAN BUT REMEMBER THIS ILL NEVER POST ON ANYTHING THAT HAS TO DO WITH THIS TOPIC AGAIN TRY TO OFFER SOME VALUABLE INFO AND GET CRUSIFIED BY THE POLITICAL CORRECT POLICE!!!!!(I WONDER IF THEY HAVE EMS ON THE SIDE OF THEIR CAR!!!!)
Thank you for providing the information so we know the child is OK. And thank you for being on the job, we really do appreciate your service to the community. Just a couple of friendly pointers about this forum: 1. Don't take anything personally. 2. Please don't type in all caps, it looks like you're shouting. 3. Don't let anybody run you off, just sit back, join in the conversation, enjoy!
i do have a good sense of humor! thats how i deal with alot of stressful situations! (but what i really have is a very low tollerance for ingorance!!!)LMAO!
Thank you for answering my question I hope the little boy is alright. My daughter and I figured someone got hurt, she said there was a little boy standing on the stairs so we were hoping no one on the bus was hurt. I will tell her. Again thank you.
