Accident on Lindero and Agoura

[Nikolai]

We were doing our usual daytime routine chores when we heard a whaling of sirens and a woosh of a helicopter.
It turned out there was a serious collision right on the intersection next to our office.
Here are a few pics.

I do *not* know about the fate of the ppl involved. Unfortunately, I was told that chopper is only sent in in a very serious case, so...

Anyway, here is my being a photojournalist. The rest of the pictures are here: http://nik.smugmug.com/gallery/718000

Hope they are all OK.

Sorry the accident was such a serious one. That always makes me so sad. I just wish people would drive carefully.

But, I'll show CJ the fire trucks.

I photographed some action at one of our beaches, a woman fell off a 5 foot bluff while flying a kite, and they had to come and take her to the hospital, could have been just a bad sprain or something, but we had 2 fire engines, 1 ambulance, the sheriff showed up as well as the highway patrol. They carried down a stretcher and one fat wheel unicycle type device for the sand.
