Bazj Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Anyone know what has happened?? Lots of police, fire and normal ambulance there earlier apparently Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Not heard of anything. What time was it at ? Was going to say maybe a bmx'r had been hurt on the skate park or something but they wouldn't need a fire engine for that. I hope whatever it was that 'whoever' is going to be ok.

Mand Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Apparently the ambulance was transferring someone to a hospital in Leicester (Not sure where from) the helicopter had a problem and had to land in the park. The patient is being transferred now via road, but isn't expected to make it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mand Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Hi and thanks for the welcome . My family live opposite and went over, they got told this by the emergency services on scene. From the sounds of it the poor patient won't make the journey, such a sad time for the family and thoughts are with them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Thanks One flew over here the other day (Tues I think) and at first I thought it was an RAF sea king heli due to the distant yellow colour approaching. Can the air ambulance fly in the dark or are they restricted to daytime/early dusk? Not that any of this helps the poor person from last night's incident of course, sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dizzy Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 How do you know it was ? Anyway back to the ambulance not being able to fly.. does that mean if you are in a really bad accident when it is dark or somewhere remote where it is hard for ambulances to get too your chances of surviving are greatly reduced Why can't the air ambulance fly at night then? The police helicopter does.. doesn't it ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Fugs appears to have been right. The heli that landed at Victoria park was apparently an RAF Seaking like this so not the air ambulance or the one in Indie's wonderful video after all. Gary you should have gone out with your camera as it only went this morning.... infact I would have too as I like seakings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
