Channel 5 helicopter showed an accident at the Harris Bank - person being airlifted to Loyola for wrapping their car around a pole at Harris....how does one go fast enough to do that in that location? And, really, this is a news story?

Thanks, Amy. I was wondering what all the air noise was this morning.

I heard and saw that too. Where would a helicopter land for that? Unless I'm thinking of the wrong Harris location?

Thanks to the 3 helicopters hovering over my house this morning, I avoided the buzz of the alarm clock. And also, really, thank you for waking the boy up early, it really makes his entire day waking up early. Thank you ABC, NBC and whoever the 3rd was, I am so glad you find reporting crap like this so important. Oh my, someone out there doesn't know how to drive, lets wake up the 27k residents of GE so that we can get good video of a jeep at a cash station. I may back out of my driveway and go over my curb slightly at approximately 5:45 tomorrow, is it a date?

Even the news story is void of any facts except that they include the hours of the drive thru. That adds a new dimension to the story!

I would guess there is far more going on than just a Jeep wrapping itself around the drive-through at the Harris Bank on Pennsylvania. There were at least three ambulances, a handful of police cars, and a ton of people over at the old Scripture Press. It was from there that the helicopter airlifted someone--we were driving past when the helicopter lifted off. Our guess is that there was some sort of incident at Scripture Press and that someone took off east on Pennsylvania, blew the stop sign at the Harris Bank, and went down the roadway to the drive-through. There was all kinds of car debris right at that turn to go down to the drive-through (and a cop blocking the way). We saw five helicopters, including the medical one.

New name for bry....Angry Bry. Smile

My guess is that the words "medical condition" will be used.

No, I don't mind the airlift helicopter, in fact I honor those that work to save a human life. The 3 others that were hovering for over an hour I do mind.

And yes clam, I guess the Glen Ellyn Bitch Board has finally worn off on me. Thank you, fan, complain, GEM and the rest of you for turning me into one of the bitchy here. Smile

Unnecessary, repetitive and redundant quote removed. --Ted E.

Bry. I want you to get up right now, sit up, go to your windows, open them and stick your head out and yell - 'I'm as mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore!

Hahahaha, Graham....you crack me up with that.

And Clam, despite what he may claim....I'm pretty sure that Bry has never been innocent, perhaps we should ask his wife?? Wink

I was driving through there around 10:30 and didn't see anything out of the ordinary....oh wait, nm. I was on Main this morning.


Should I give up, or should I just keep chasing pavements....even if it leads nowhere - Adele

Wonder if we will ever find out what happened to this person from the media outlets that were so interested in it?

Hope the person will be okay and this was not their 15 minutes of fame.
