Does anyone out there have pics to share of Anime North Spec Ops people helping direct traffic? It's the sort of thing that makes the anime community as a whole look good and we'd love to have as many pics as possible in our records.

Okay, most people probably know by now there was a traffic accident in front of the hotel Sunday afternoon. I don't have any info to share beyond it involved cars and happened at the stoplight.

It happenedd at about 3 PM on Sunday on the crosswalk between the Doubletree and TCC. A guy tried to make a U-turn and was hit by another car, resulting in crumpled front ends. I kind-of almost saw it happen, having just exited the hotel when it did. They did end up taking one of the driver's away in an ambulance, but I got the impression it was just precautionary.
Kudos to our Special Ops team for helping out with the traffic, they got a slap on the back from the Fire Department when they showed up. |

We looked out our hotel window just a blink after it happened.
Which car was making the u-turn - the one closest to the hotel or closest to the TCC? |

The one, appearantly closest to the hotel was making the U-turn unless the crash subsided and turned in a 1:5 chance to face the way it did from the other traffic island.
The driver that was taken away by parameds(EMS) was in slight shock and was a senior. To avoid any further critical symptoms, I believe that he was taken away to have his heart rate calmed down. Perhaps he was experiencing palpitation. (as the heart gets faster and gains more activity, it can't handle the pressure and gives various chest and body pains, usually cause by high blood pressure and stress.) After that, there was a minor/major incident within the DT, and it was answered fairly quickly for it was only 20 steps away from the traffic accident. The fire dept. answered first because their call station is just 5 minutes away from the DoubleTree, so they came with basic paramed equipment if needed and to sand the various chemicals that had escaped the cars by collision, just incase. While SpecOps redirected traffic around the firetruck and the accident, EMS arrived 5-8 minutes after and responded quickly to the senior. The rest was just taken care of properly and to my knowledge, within an hour to an hour and a half, the two fenderbenders were gone and only the trace of the sand on the road was left. _________________________________________________

One of the drivers put footage on YouTube here and notes there were no serious injuries.

I want to offer thanks and congratulations to SpecOps for their help in the traffic accident. It's due to their diligence that more accidents stemming from this one were avoided.

Here's one I shot from in front of the TCC showing the Ambulance arriving and bags of sawdust waiting for the clean-up. Spec Ops was redirecting foot traffic at the time.
