NEW: Cops doing CPR on a gravely wounded man urgently called for EMS. So, why did it take DC911/OUC more than 15 mins. to send fire & EMS to Sunday's deadly Dupont Circle shooting? I have some of the answers. History tells us they may be the only answers you ever get. statter911.com/2026/10/21/m...

Clarendon Tonight!: One lucky customer of O'Sullivan's got the VIP treatment with her own special armed security for the rest of the night. I'm sure it was a sight that turned heads. I gather she was the millionth customer or something like that. Video from CivicViewPro.com. #Clarendon #arlingtonva

Someone wasn't paying attention. Two trucks stopped. The third didn't. Lots of property damage, but only minor injury to one driver in this crash along I-90/94 in the Portage, Wisconsin, area on Monday. Video from CivicViewPro.com. #truckers #trucks #crash #Wisconsin

Shoulder running again led to a crash on I-395N at the Route 1 merge from Crystal City, VA. This is the same spot where both Virginia State Police and Arlington County Police regularly write tickets. This messed up rush hour for a lot of people yesterday morning. #traffic #drivers #crash

Early video(s) from firefighters battling a house fire in Millvale Borough, PA. statter911.com/2026/09/29/m... #firefighters

This wasn't even close. The hit occurred about 9 seconds after the light turned red. It happened last night at Sudley Road and Balls Ford Road in Prince William County, VA, just north of Manassas. No indication of serious injury. Video from CivicViewPro.com. #crash #driving #virginia

At least two EMS calls so far tonight. This one was for a "highly intoxicated" man at Clarendon Ballroom. Much earlier, EMS was called for someone arrested on N. Highland who was feeling ill. #arlingtonva #clarendon

Watch: This SUV ended up completely on its side, did a little spin, and bounced right back up. It happened this morning at 50 and 213 on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Video from civicviewpro.com. #cras #rollover #maryland #mdtraffic

NEW: A car and a truck collided yesterday afternoon on I-66E after VA 123 in Fairfax County, VA. Video recorded by CivicViewPro.com. #crash #vatraffic #trucks

Remembering September 11, 2001. 25 years later, here is a look back at how that day unfolded from the Pentagon. statter911.com/2026/09/11/s... #firefighters #pentagon

Ed Plaugher was the fire chief in one of the country's smallest counties, but he helped prepare the National Capital Region for one of its biggest tasks. In fact, he tried to prepare me five years before 9/11. statter911.com/2026/09/10/9... #Pentagon #firefighters

Clarendon Tonight Update: Reports of closing time fights at Clarendon Ballroom and O'Sullivan's. Both quickly handled by the nightlife detail. #clarendon #arlingtonva #police

Clarendon Tonight: The puzzling epidemic continues. EMS is on the scene right now at Wilson and Hudson for a reported unconscious woman. #clarendon #arlingtonva #police #EMS

STATter911 obtained police drone video of that close call for Fairfax County, VA firefighters 11 days ago. The video that clearly shows the damaged pole was pulled down by a truck that snagged low hanging traffic signals. A firefighter was hurt, but escaped serious injury. youtu.be/_LTxxWYnnNo?...

Watch: The storm just before midnight seemed to be the strongest of the summer here in Arlington, VA. They are still dealing with downed wires and trees. These scenes from what seemed to be the height of the storm are mostly from traffic cams recorded by CivicViewPro.com. #weather #arlingtonva

Firefighters arrive just in time as a car fire spreads to the house. Early video here- statter911.com/2026/09/03/c... #firefighters

This I-395N game is played daily. Drivers cross the gore and ride the shoulder near Route 1 to get around the backup. Some days, police write tickets. Today, two players incurred consequences a bit worse than a fine. Here's hoping injuries weren't serious. #crash #vatraffic #police

Wow! This SUV driving on the Capital Beltway south of Braddock Road pulled over just in time early Sunday evening. Fairfax County (VA) firefighters handled the fire. Video from civicviewpro.com. #fires #beltwayfire #vatraffic #closecall #firefighters

NEW: This is the vehicle fire on the Inner Loop (I-95/495S) that has slowed the Capital Beltway in both directions north of Annapolis Road (MD 450). Video from CivicViewPro.com. #beltway #mdtraffic #firefighters

Watch this: Were they trying to make the exit they just missed or just changing lanes without looking? Either way, the result was the same yesterday on I-95 in Petersburg, VA. Video from CivicViewPro.com. #crash #collision #Petersburg #Virginia

If you were wondering what was clogging up I-395S through Shirlington during the midnight hour, this was it. All lanes are now open. #vatraffic #crash

Watch: If you're going to make a left turn from the center of 5 lanes, maybe it's best not to do it right in front of a VA State Trooper. It's even better not to then get into a crash. Just before midnight. Braddock Rd over I-495. No serious injuries. Video via civicviewpro.com. #crash #police

NEW: It looks like all lanes are blocked on I-395N at Exit 8A just past the Arlington Ridge Road overpass. Arlington County Fire Department and Virginia State Police are handling a multi-vehicle crash. Image from VDOT. #vatraffic #traffic

Video shows the moment a pole fell on an area where Fairfax County, VA, firefighters were working yesterday. The outcome could have been much worse. statter911.com/2026/08/26/v... #firefighters #closecall

After today’s Grand Prix in DC, I’ve come up with a better idea for Arlington. Chargers, Challengers, and other cars chased through the county into DC also go 140 mph on I-395. We also have the same monument views. Just set up reviewing stands in Pentagon South Parking. Watch my pitch reel below.

Hit & Run: A car overturned this morning after a crash in South Arlington (VA). The driver and three passengers crawled out and ran off. Apparently, there were no serious injuries. It happened at Columbia Pike & S. Dinwiddie around 7:15 a.m. Video via CivicPro.com. #crash #hitandrun #police

Clarendon Tonight: Within 25 minutes, 2 people less than a half block apart, needed rides to the hospital. The 1st was reported unresponsive on the sidewalk. The 2nd was reported very intoxicated inside Don Tito. In other words, business as usual in Clarendon. #clarendon #arlingtonva #police #EMS

Pentagon pedestrian runs from out-of-control SUV: A driver lost control at the Pentagon last night. Fire & EMS were dispatched for a pedestrian hit. The injured man was sitting up on the sidewalk when they arrived. The driver spent time with Pentagon officers, but was not arrested. #pentagon #crash

Air traffic in DC not halted for Trump: Here's STATter911 video showing a jet taking off from DCA as Marine One leaves the Ellipse headed for Joint Base Andrews yesterday. The FAA is investigating why this occurred. youtu.be/KqkCophV3Ec?... #POTUS #Trump #DCA #aviation #marineone

Sen. Lindsey Graham was still alive when DC Fire & EMS crews reached him. A reporter's assumption he wasn't, and a series of other mistakes prompted a cruel ambush interview of the Graham staffer who called 911. Details here- statter911.com/2026/08/03/w... #LindseyGraham @joshmankiewicz.bsky.social

The exit that keeps on giving: Here's the latest crash on I-395S at Exit 8C to Crystal City, VA. How do we convince people it's okay to miss their exit? It's not okay to do this. #crash #collision #drivers

Early video from an Ohio house fire. statter911.com/2026/07/28/e... #firefighters

WATCH THIS: HIT & RUN on I-395N passing Crystal City, VA. An aggressive driver took out a car that was getting on the highway from Route 1 and then kept going. The car was last seen heading onto the ramp to the southbound GW Parkway toward Reagan National Airport. #crash #hitandrun #police

#Tesla splits: A #Cybertruck and 10 other vehicles were hit by an out-of-control moving van today. It happened on US 29N near Fairland Rd in Montgomery County, MD. 10 people hurt, including 3 children. No life-threatening injuries. Video & images from CivicViewPro.com, except where noted. #crash #MD

SMOKED IN DC: I hope the US has slapped a healthy tariff on this imported air. If so, it might be the only thing healthy about today. The U.S. Capitol is the last shot because it took me a while to find it. #canadasmoke #wildfires #weather #airquality #DCsmoke

A bus & 4 cars: That's the total from a wreck a short time ago after someone really didn't want to miss exit 8C on I-395S. It created a chain reaction of crashes. It did not appear that there were serious injuries. #crash #police #traffic #vatraffic

Pentagon drifting: Someone had fun at 3:30 this morning at a Pentagon parking lot on Army Navy Drive. I wonder if it's the same person who used do the same thing in the intersection with Eads Street. Police finally caught him near the Pentagon a while back. #pentagon #drifting #cars #drivers

Radio traffic from response to Sen. Graham’s home: Emergency radio traffic indicates that Senator Lindsey Graham suffered chest pains before going into cardiac arrest Saturday night. Efforts to revive the South Carolina lawmaker were not successful. Graham died two days after his 71st birthday.

Wrong-way driver crash: This was the scene a short time ago in the express lanes of I-395S near Edsall. Early word is that this was caused by a wrong-way driver. The express lanes are closed. #crash #wrongway #police #firefighters #EMS #vatraffic

For those who watched my live stream of the DC fireworks, sorry. We got smoked out in a few minutes, making it impossible to see. Smoke hung low and the winds pushed it our way. Here's a sped up view of the event. Better view to the north. #fireworks #dcfireworks #july4th youtu.be/jLVqH1kZDFg?...

In less than an hour, STATter911 will live stream the flyovers from the National Mall in Washington, DC. View it on @STATter911 on YouTube & X, along with the Dave Statter Facebook page. Fireworks tonight. #flyovers #fireworks

Early video from an Arnold, Pennsylvania, house fire. statter911.com/2026/06/30/p... #firefighters

When the cars in front of you are stopped, it's not a bad idea for you to do the same. Yesterday, just after 5p, exiting from I-395N to S. Hayes Street. No indication that there were injuries. Three vehicles involved. #crash #traffic

Clarendon Tonight: This is a little bit different. EMS called for an "extremely intoxicated" person in a vehicle on Wilson at N. Hudson. #arlingtonva #clarendon #police #EMS

Tomorrow marks 40 years since the death of Len Bias – a tragedy that stunned the sports world and the legion of fans who followed the young basketball star. It was one of the most heartbreaking and troubling days in local sports history. statter911.com/2026/06/17/l... @joshmankiewicz.bsky.social

NEW: On the eve of an election for a new mayor and council members, DC911 caused major delays for 2 high-priority EMS calls. For the 7th time in as many months, a crucial radio channel was unmonitored. Will the city's new leaders finally fix DC911? statter911.com/2026/06/15/d... #911fail #FixDC911

Watch: When your aim is just a little off. A car coming off the I-395 ramp into Shirlington around 2:45 Saturday morning. Traffic-cam video from CivicView.com (formerly SafetyVid). #crash #arlingtonva #police

NEW: An interesting sight this afternoon. A dozen helicopters flew across the Potomac River and National Mall a little while ago, heading east. #aviation #military #helicopter #flyover
