- Reader Brad Wilmot sent us this photo of the scene of an apartment fire in Columbia on Sunday morning. See more of his images here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/baldbrad/
- Reader Brad Wilmot heard about this morning's fire on his scanner, and he took this photo of the blaze out of his apartment window.
Brad said this about the audio: I regularly stream the fire/EMS scanner to RadioReference.com, so I just copied the files to my computer, edited them, and dropped them into a software called Vegas to make a "video" so I could upload it to YouTube. The traffic was edited for dead air and for calls unrelated to the fire. It started out about 13 hours long, and I edited it down to just under two hours.
