Accident, Teddy Bears, CanAm 2016

 I am going to rework my teddy bear photos as a product of Just Bearly's Footography for Flickr. 
 The newest bear from December 2018.  It is from the LB store.  It does not seem to have a name.  I think I will call it Jake.
 On the 3rd of January at about 11:00 am there was a pedestrian hit.  Three or Four Police cars and at least 3 ambulances and the dog pound truck  arrived.  Some of the men were Saanich Police, some were Firemen and some were Paramedics.  They got the guy loaded into the ambulance, then set up the crime scene tape.  The photographer spent some time taking photos.  There was a young woman taken to the scene from up the block (by view was blocked by the house).  She seemed to be in cuffs and looked very distressed.  They eventually took the tapes down and three of the police cars remained on the street until about 5:30.  We have no ideas what happened as there has been no reports in the news, or newspapers. 
 some of the vehicles at the scene as they loaded the person onto the ambulance.
I have been loading a few of my photos from the CanAm in the Palouse area, near Spokane, Washington, in 2016.  This is one of Pat's favourite photos.  These photos are mostly taken from on our Model T, so they are kinda blurry.

Further to this post about the 'accident' Saanich News has a short article about it: self inflicted wounds
A 33-year-old man remains in police custody after Saanich police arrested him Thursday afternoon.

Sgt. Jereme Leslie of the Saanich Police said police responded to a domestic incident in the 4200-block of Grange Road just before 11 a.m on Jan. 3. Leslie said crews took the man to an area hospital with what authorities said were self-inflicted wounds.

“This man has been remanded by the courts and remains in custody,” he said

Further information in the article noted above:
“As the matter is before the courts we’ll be unable to provide further comment at this time.”

The man is scheduled to make a court appearance Tuesday, said Leslie.
