Amherst · Klein & Chestnut Hill

Two-Car MVA at Klein and Chestnut Hill, Airbag Deployed, Tow Requested

Sanford 2 responds; Amherst PD calls for a hook the moment the cars are documented.

At 17:08, an Amherst PD unit reported a personal-injury accident in front of 6 Chestnut Hill Lane, then clarified it was actually at the corner of Klein Road and Chestnut Hill. Amherst Fire moved a 92 to the scene and Sanford 2 rolled at 17:18.

The PD supervisor at 17:18 asked HQ to run Victor 6486, adding — without preamble — “airbag deployment, also going to need a hook”. From the trunk, no injuries were called for transport before the segment cut; fire took the on-scene handoff ("I'm just being handled by fire right now").

Amherst · Somerset Lane

"The 16-Year-Old Complainant's Mother Just Punched Him in the Face"

A rare mid-afternoon domestic where the caller is the child, not the parent.

At 15:07, an Amherst PD supervisor briefed the shift on a fresh dispatch to Somerset Lane, opening with the sentence “Somerset Lane on the left. The 16-year-old complainant's mother just punched him in the face”. Units acknowledged; a follow-up eight minutes later had #7 clearing the previous call and heading directly to Somerset.

Getzville · The Colony of Amherst

Physical Domestic Rolls Up at 5 a.m.; Old Welfare Note Puts a "Box of Knives Under the TV" on the Board

Dispatch flags a months-old Alexis Fitzgerald / Joseph Kelly welfare call as officers approach; both parties calm on arrival.

At 05:10, an Amherst PD dispatcher upgraded an ongoing overnight call: “We just got more information from CPS saying it is going to be a physical domestic”. Roughly a minute later, HQ read back an old flag on the same address — “A welfare check a few months ago. The complainant was an Alexis Fitzgerald. She stated that Joseph Kelly is her boyfriend and was physically restraining her from leaving and he is known to keep a box of knives under the TV”.

By 05:15 units were on scene and reported both parties calm; cars slowed down and the responding officer went 10-4, speaking with a female. No transport, no arrests audible on the trunk before the segment closed.

Amherst · Wegmans at 675 Alberta

Wegmans Flags a Slur-Shouter in a Black Mazda; He Left Before the Cars Arrived

Called in with time on it; PD arrives, Mazda gone, elderly white male in a handicapped spot never located.

At 19:08, an Amherst PD supervisor read out a customer-trouble/harassment complaint at “Wegmans, 675 Alberta, there was a male subject that screamed some slurs at another customer, it's an elderly white male, black t-shirt, blue jeans, he's in a black Mazda four-door sedan, he's parked in a handicapped spot, and like I said, it's been long for a bit”. The caller was Wegmans staff, not the person yelled at; by 19:12 the responding car reported the black Mazda was no longer in any of the handicapped spots — “That vehicle's not in any of the handicapped spots, I'm guessing it left”.

Williamsville · Glen Falls Park

Female Fell at the Entrance to the Falls; Williamsville EMS Walks Down the Hill

Amherst Fire triangulates the caller to the parking lot off Glen Avenue, then to the trail.

At 15:28, Amherst Fire dispatched Williamsville EMS to Glen Falls Park, 215 Glen Avenue, for a female who had fallen. A minute of clarifying transmissions established that the caller was at the entrance to the falls near the parking lot, with crews using the bell on the way down the hill.

Amherst · Breland Park

"Notify Town Highway to Send a Plow": Amherst PD Handles a Deer, in Pieces, All Over the Road

The report closed as a "fatality." It was the deer.

At 22:07 an Amherst PD officer at the Breland Park area asked HQ, in a resigned voice, “Can you notify Town Highway to send a plow or something to help remove some of the pieces of the deer? It's scattered all over the road”. Twenty seconds later the same supervisor cleared it: “Breland Park, close out the report for your fatality. Streams update is clear” — leaving the shift briefly wondering, on air, who exactly the deceased was until context made it obvious.

FRS 16 · tower-erection monologue

A Friday-Evening Tower Rigger Talks Himself Through the Job on FRS 16

Angle irons. A tip-over tower. A cable into the middle of the repeat area. Somewhere in the middle, a lost item to be painted orange with a string tied to it.

Beginning around 19:47, FRS 16 turned into a live audio diary of a solo ham/tower project. The narrator drifted through the steps in real time — “A tip-over tower with angle irons and holes and all sorts of things”, then “Put some angle irons on there so I can help that ball and do it”, then a callout to a helper: “I phoned Derek and I picked the tower up”. Concrete still had to be poured, the truck he was in had a name, and he insulated a shed but wasn't living in it.

The best line landed at 23:19, folded into a completely different conversation about a vibrating wrist and something he could not find: “Paint it orange. Tie a string to it”.

Amherst · Bailey Avenue, near Walmart

"He's Just Scrolling on His Phone, Laying Down": Robertson, Common Spelling, First Name Paul, Trach In

Welfare check on a man in all black in the grass on Bailey turns out to be a familiar face from Boulevard the other day.

At 18:55, an Amherst PD unit took a welfare check for a subject wearing all black lying in the grass near the sidewalk on Bailey, near the driveway to Walmart. Four minutes later he was calling it in-service: “He's fine. He's just scrolling on his phone, laying down”. HQ recognized him — “I think we dealt with him the other day on the boulevard” — and the subject introduced himself on air in the third person: “My name is Robertson. I'm a common spelling. My first name is Paul. I'm a common spelling”.

BNIA · Delta ramp, closet upstairs

"I'm Glad That Got a Check to See if There's a Bug in There": Delta Ramp Investigates a Backpack, a Lock, and a Bug on Boarding

Two minutes of ramp radio that ends with the acknowledgment that there is no number on the bag.

At 15:41 the Delta ramp channel at BNIA opened with “Upstairs in the closet where they keep that stuff”, then — with boarding already in progress on the aircraft in question — “inside the plane. I'm glad that got a check to see if there's a bug in there”. "Dave, can you check that lock? Three numbers on that backpack," someone asked; the reply landed cleanly: “There is no number”.

Buffalo · Watson Street working fire

BFD Works a Church Fire on Watson Street With Solar Panels Sitting Over the Altar

Truck bucket in play by 15:11, aerials shutting down by 15:26, building inspector booked for the morning.

Buffalo Fire's Channel 2 fireground opened at 15:09 with the ranking officer noting a specific structural complication: “There's a lot of solar in that rear roof there that would be over the altar. If we can concentrate on that area, that'll be good”. Ch. 1 Dispatch two minutes later routed the air truck and BN Supplies up Watson Street, telling them the crews were working the number-3 side.

By 15:11 the tower company had the bucket set; by 15:21 the officer was asking if bounced water into the same area would hold the fire — “Do you think if we just keep hitting that area we're going to bounce enough water around to keep it in check?” — and asking whether he was looking at three turrets. Aerials began shutting down at 15:26; at 19:43 the dispatcher noted the building would be put on the inspector's list to evaluate the next morning. No injury count named on the trunk in the run-out window.

Buffalo Limo · handgun sighting

"Edward, Now With a Handgun With an Extender on It, Waving It Out of the Window"

A single unedited Buffalo Limo transmission puts a live gun-in-a-car call on the trunk; no location, no follow-up.

At 20:40:08, a Buffalo Limo dispatcher stepped out of the usual cab-book chatter and keyed up with a ten-second observation: “Edward, now with a handgun with an extender on it, waving it out of the window, a flash now is correct”. The next line (fifteen-hour reflection area) reads like operator jargon and did not include a street, cross-street, or plate; the channel returned to routine calls by 21:30 with no further audio on the incident.

Whether the driver phoned it in to Buffalo PD via a separate line is not audible on the trunks; no matching gun call surfaced on BFD or on the Simulcast talkgroup during the same window. Surfaced here because a taxi dispatcher describing a handgun-with-an-extender is not a normal night.

Wyoming County · 611 Exchange St Rd

Two-Victim Stabbing at 611 Exchange Street Road; Medic 3 and Rudolph Ambulance En Route

A rare Friday-evening stabbing call on the Wyoming County trunk, run out of the Perry area.

At 17:59, Wyoming County Fire Control paged “Base Stabbing, Medic 3, and Rudolph”, then followed fifteen seconds later with the address and casualty count: “611 Exchange Street Road, we're second victim of stabbing, you have medic 3 en route, also”. Later in the evening the same channel called for a Mercy Flight landing zone at the Attica Correctional Facility helicopter pad for what appeared to be an unrelated case.

Hamburg · 3976 Katelyn Terrace

Backyard Brush Fire in Hamburg Encroaches on the House, Pulls Woodlawn / Newstead / Big Tree Mutual Aid

Two dispatch pages a minute apart; the second one names the house as directly threatened.

At 01:08 the Town of Hamburg Fire dispatcher pushed a brush fire in the backyard of 3976 Katelyn Terrace, off North Street, with other reports coming in. Six minutes later she upgraded it: “Encroaching on the residence, LaBonne Engine, mutual aid to Pixie” — pulling in Woodlawn, Newstead, Big Tree, and Spur to work Fenton Fire alongside the initial engine.
