I saw a bunch of Police cars and ambulances outside my window yesterday and I couldn’t quite see what they we’re doing. All I could see was that they had shut off the streets in all directions so I knew it must have been something pretty serious. I went about my day and only remembered the sirens and the Police this morning. So, on a whim I decided to see if I could find images on Flickr of the incident. Low and behold I found a set of great photographs. Apparently some old lady lost control and drove her vehicle into my local 7-Eleven. It’s interesting that I can look up photos tagged with Vancouver and find high quality images of a local event/incident taken by some random guy. Flickr is awesome, but it’s just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to this whole citzen media thing.
