To all those that hit the RT button about that Amber Alert, I strongly believe you all helped, making it harder for the suspect to drive the vehicle anywhere without getting spotted. Glad to see social media being used to help other people. Kudos to Providence Police as well.
Early this morning,

Trooper Tyler Harrington located a missing 82-year-old with Alzheimer’s who had wandered away from his home. Trooper Harrington carried the man from a ditch to his cruiser until an ambulance arrived.
Woman just called Providence Police stating she was in the process of digging a hole to bury her deceased dog and she located what she thinks was human remains.
Remember, our

is NOT "free". Thank you all for your services! Deepest condolences to family, friends and their respected forces for their loss.
Did you know that after the terrorist attack in NY, several members of the Providence Canteen responded to Ground Zero and spent almost 8 days on scene. It's estimated over 3,000 person were served while on scene.

Don't get me wrong, if something is broken it should be fixed but if you're going to say it's from 1960s, this should have been monitored better, preventing it from getting this bad. RIH is the only Trauma center in our area... In a medical emergency, seconds matter!
Just proof
@taylorswift13
is a class act. Taylor recently donated tickets to her upcoming show in Foxborough MA to Weymouth Police officers and their families. If you a fan or not, gotta agree that's an amazingly nice gesture.
Moving forward, I will be simply blocking non-followers who tell me how to run my page. If you are a follower, I respect the fact everyone has a right to their own opinion however, when you instruct me to do it a certain way, bye Felicia!

On behalf of myself and my family, we wish retired Judge Frank Caprio well wishes and you’ll be in our prayers. Him speaking about this so openly just shows the inner strength he holds inside. We hope to see another video soon, saying you’re now cancer free!

Hi all! We have had such a tremendous turnout that our trailers are all FULL and we will need to end this early. We appreciate all the volunteers, staff, and donors that made this possible.
It doesn't happen often but.. someone took it upon themselves that they were better then everyone on Rt. 195 W and FLEW down the breakdown lane.... followed by a local cop..

Warwick police on scene with a carton of eggs on fire. Yes, eggs. originally they were going to call Fire Department but an Officer stated he was going to get a cup of water from McDonald's

The holidays are upon us and for most, it’s a happy time of the year but for some it’s a time when depression really kicks in. It’s ok to not be ok. The world is a tough place and there is nothing wrong with asking for a little help.
Just watched a rescue travel on 195 W/B and it was like a snail making its way through traffic. If that was a trauma patient, seconds matter. If you see a rescue with lights on, please MOVE OVER bc if it was your loved one, you’d want them to get treatment ASAP.
Now that some time has passed and next of kin was properly notified, I'd like to take a moment and offer my deepest condolences to Warren Assistant Fire Chief Brian Remy, his family, friends and co-workers.
@WarrenFireRI
Heard a-lot of good things about him, which says alot.
We’re getting additional photos and video coming in of the fire in Pawtucket. C725 / Video appears to show someone separating several vehicles that are on fire with heavy construction equipment.
Just watch a TikTok that displays a RIPTA driver absolutely flooring it through a large body of water which results in stranded cars being further damaged. I guess having them reroute one street over is asking for too much from their drivers.
HEART-STOPPING RESCUE: Watch the incredible moment a state trooper plunges into a freezing cold pond to pull out an 8-year-old who fell in playing with her sibling.
Anytime SWAT is dispatched to a call, the location of the incident will NOT be posted via RIBNS. The whole purpose of SWAT is to gain a tactical approach and putting their location puts the safety of officers at risk.
I'm not going to lie.. and I have ZERO shame in admitting it... I was down this road myself. I give huge kudos to this officer. If you or someone you know may be battling a fight, please ensure them that they are NOT ALONE! There is help out there.
Men can be close—very close, like brothers, and even closer than brothers.
Deep down, all men long for this brotherhood.
It's because we need each other. We need other men who get it.
We were not meant to fight this fight alone.
I will not broadcast live from a scene that may show the location of tactical officers. It puts everyone at danger and it’s just irresponsible. If other people decide to jeopardize the safety of others, that’s on them.
This past storm should have opened the eyes of several people in office that our current infrastructure should be addressed and fixed. Repairing and fixing the damage is only part of the solution. Let’s prevent it from happening again!
It’s confirmed, RI State and Providence have gotten several calls from the businesses stating they’re viewing the cameras and seeing people walk out with merchandise.
I post this every year but with all the theft that has happened, ya should really consider taking a few extra minutes and break down boxes (tv, computers, etc) from gifts. Leaving empty boxes outside for trash tell thieves what new items have been added to your home.
For the few that thought I was “making it up” for likes/followers… The story was/is true… Here is a screenshot from WPRI reporting additional information about the incident. I’ve invested to much time/money and gained the trust of thousands… not about to throw that away..
Large disturbance in Southern Rhode Island, several neighboring police depts are sending units to assist, including RI State Police. (Several people already in custody)
10 million dollars worth of diamonds was stolen today from a northern RI city. Three Hispanic males reportedly broke into the truck of a vehicle and took 3 suitcases containing “10 million dollars of diamonds”.
On a bright note, the color red looks pretty on the camera... Almost like a giant Christmas display... Interstate 195 W/B is a PARKING LOT. If you are entering RI, (I'm sorry), exit into East Providence to travel into Providence.
Someone stole the plaque from my sons memorial on 95 South, between exits 8 and 7. I am offering a $1000 reward to whoever finds out who took the plaque from my sons memorial and gets it returned to me. But I need to know who took it.

Ship carrying Porsches, Bentleys & Audis was ablaze near the Azores, it's destination was Davisville, Rhode Island (NORAD). It's estimated damage was near $100 million dollars.
For the family business we do work with steel and I will say, weather can play a part in the erosion process however, this didn’t randomly show up since July. /last inspection/ This was the result of several years of being out in the New England elements unaddressed.
While recovering a body is never good, I’m hoping that the family has some form of closure knowing he’s been found. He reportedly went into the water to help someone in distress and never resurfaced. I hope his family realizes he was a hero.
“critical failure of some original bridge components from the 1960s.” is the reason... How did they randomly come across it today/tonight? Usually, things over time break down... this could have been prevented.. If you knew it was from 1960, better inspections would've helped.
Two names that should be remembered from today [09/02/21],

May they both rest in peace!

So I guess Facebook & Insta are down... so wishing someone a happy birthday may require a little more effort now. You might have to pick up a phone and call them.
He, clearly unlike other people did his job correctly and it’s appreciated however it should have never come down to this. It’s not his fault, it’s the many before that just prob never got out of their vehicle and said “it’s okay”.
If u see a large vehicle with bright flashing lights and a blaring siren, I promise you they aren’t racing to get a good deal on Roma tomatoes before they close. They’re rushing to or from something/someone that needed immediate help. During an emergency, seconds count! MOVE OVER
I will not nor have I ever posted something just for clicks or followers. Sometimes, listening to incidents may seem far fetched however it’s what was heard. The whole purpose of this acct is to inform followers of ongoing incidents, regardless how “crazy” they may seem.
After seeing numerous videos of that terrible act in Nashville, I give HUGE kudos to all the law enforcement that kept advancing forward towards the gunfire and neutralized the shooter. Their actions helped prevent the loss of countless innocent lives.
Safe travels. With rescue equipment packed

I am semi good at multi tasking but whoever was working fire alarm for Lawrence Fire is amazing. Calm, cool and collective which is half the reason so many depts were able to assist such a wide area so quickly.
