Speaker 1 (01:55):
Every seat is great, especially the ones that say g
A on them. Great ass some answer grade ass seats,
seats gas, you're gonna love them, all right. We have
a horrible story coming out of Santa Anna. Everybody sends
their kids to school, and you think they're gonna be great,
(02:17):
they're gonna be safe, and sometimes we're even safer than
in your own neighborhood. You know, they're at school, there's teachers, security,
and you feel safe when your kids are at school.
Not anymore, not anymore. There's some uneasy feeling about sending
your kids to school. But my parents sent us to
(02:38):
school when we were kids. Man, they were relieved we
were out of the house. They had six kids. We'd
walk to school, we were walking distance to elementary school.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
We'd all walked. I'd walk.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I remember walking to school in third grade. I don't
know how old you are in third grade?
Speaker 6 (02:54):
What are you?
Speaker 2 (02:54):
Four? Five? How old you in third grade?
Speaker 5 (02:58):
Like?
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Seven?
Speaker 7 (03:00):
All right?
Speaker 1 (03:02):
Well I was five. I skipped a grade, skipped a couple. Yeah,
I skipped nursery school, pre K and K. They got
right into first grade. So I was younger than most
of my other classmates. I was five. I still had
I remember in third grade I had diapers, and all
the other kids are potty trained. Is that how you
(03:22):
say that cucumber? Cucumber potty trained. I wasn't quite there yet.
Still load nutme drawers. But I will tell you that
school was a great hang and it felt safe. It's
not anymore. Parents are nervous as hell about sending their
kids to school nowadays, and because of crap like this
(03:43):
where a kid was stabbed. Three kids were stabbed and
one kid was killed. I mean, let that sink in.
A kid went to school. I think it was a student,
probably was of the high school and went to school
today on a Wednesday, like he's been doing his whole life,
(04:06):
and it's not coming home because he was stabbed to death.
It's crazy, right, let's get some more information on what
went down here.
Speaker 8 (04:21):
Out of abundance of caution, all after school activities were
canceled for today. The district stresses the safety and well
being of its students and staff remain a high priority,
and crisis counselors will be available on campus tomorrow to
support any students who may need assistance processing what took
place today. Once again, three students were stabbed here outside
(04:41):
of the high school in a possible gang related incident
that took place earlier today around three point thirty this afternoon. Sadly,
one of those students did die from his injuries, and
those two other students have been listed as stable. But
of course we'll be following the story as it develops.
But a lot of concerned parents here, a lot of
concerned students in this neighborhood following today's tragedy outside of
(05:02):
Santa Ana. Hih reporting live in Santa Anna, David Gonzalez,
ABC seven, I would assumed.
Speaker 1 (05:07):
I'll tell you what the story is not going to
get though. This story will not get the anti gun guys,
the anti gun nuts, to get out there and talk
about how guns are destroying campuses. If this was done
with a gun, they would be politician after politician out
there screaming and yelling. But because it was a stabbing,
that crew is not going to show up because they're
(05:30):
more concerned about the politics than they are about the students.
And proof of that is watch how many politicians show.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
Up at this school. Very few, very few.
Speaker 1 (05:42):
But if it was a shooting, the governor would have
been there, the senators would have commented, everybody would have
had a comment if it was a gun, But because
there was a stabbing, they're not going to be anywhere nearby.
And maybe the governor will say something, probably will, but
(06:02):
he would add a much longer comment if it was
done at the hands of a gun. It's crazy, all right,
is if we getting more details on how old this
uh these kids were who were stabbed. It really takes
the breath out of you that we live in a
community where kids went to school and one of them
is not coming home. It's every parent's worse nightmare. And
(06:27):
you think about it, you know, you think about what
you would do if your kid, you know, was killed
or you know, getting a car accident and stuff like that,
and you and you try to change your mindset real
quickly and not dwell on it, but we all dwell,
We all think about it.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
You know what happens.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
If something happens to your kid, you have no idea
how you'd go on in life. That's going on in
a house in Santa Ana tonight tonight, and so please
keep that family in your prayers.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
I think prayers are hugely.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
Important, very powerful, and those parents are going to need
a lot of help tonight and.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
The siblings of those of that person was killed.
Speaker 9 (07:18):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
Am sixty.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
It is The Conway Show.
Speaker 1 (07:25):
Any more news coming out of Anna with the stabbing
at the high school there, we will have that for you.
It's depressing as hell. That's where we are in southern California,
and we will have any information for you immediately.
Speaker 10 (07:42):
Here.
Speaker 1 (07:42):
It happened outside of Martin Heninger Elementary School actually across
the street, and sant Ana High School is right there
as well. Port to sant Ana Police's apartment. One student
was killed and two others described in stable condition. So
we'll have updates for you immediately once we get them.
(08:03):
There's a horrible story going on about a former Los
Angeles Laker. Maybe you've heard of the story Byron Scott.
Mister clean always uh kept his nose clean. You never
heard him with any drugs or DUI's or you know,
cheating on the wife or anything like that. Just a
(08:26):
really great guy until now, until now, And now he's
got to face all of this criticism and all of
these accusations of having sex back in nineteen eighty seven,
eighty seven, what is that? Forty years ago? Forty almost
(08:51):
forty years ago. He's got to fight the fight charges
from forty almost forty years ago.
Speaker 11 (08:58):
Former Lakers star Byron Scott now being accused of sexually
assaulted a teenager in nineteen eighty seven. That lost it
was first filed in twenty twenty two, but didn't name Scott.
Speaker 12 (09:09):
In a new amended version, Scott is accused of assaulting
that teenager during the filming of an instructional video at
Campbell Hall High School in Studio City.
Speaker 1 (09:18):
Oh wow, all right, Campbell Hall is Campbell I get
these two schools mixed up? Is that the one off
Laurel in the one on one freeway?
Speaker 2 (09:26):
Where's that Laurel.
Speaker 13 (09:27):
Hall North Campbell Hall?
Speaker 7 (09:30):
Well?
Speaker 1 (09:30):
I thought Campbell Hall was near Burbank. There's Laurel Hall
and Campbell Hall is Campbell Hall off.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
It's Video City. It's Laurel Canyon Boulevard.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Okay, so that's one off right there where they just
built a new auditorium.
Speaker 3 (09:50):
I got the one, I think the one one one.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Oh well, there's two.
Speaker 1 (09:53):
There's one off the one seventy and there's one off
the one on one near Laurel Canyon, and one is
Campbell the island.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Laurel Hall.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
Oh yeah, yours is one on one. Campbell Hall is
one one Campbell Hall.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
All right. That's a very expensive school.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
I think that's fifty thousand dollars a year for elementary, junior,
high and high school.
Speaker 3 (10:13):
That is wild in Studio City.
Speaker 12 (10:15):
The lawsuit says Scott was twenty six at the time,
the alleged victim fifteen. The suit says the alleged assault
happened in a locked janitor's closet at the school's gym.
We've reached out to Scott's legal team, who sent us
this statement. It reads, quote, our client is devastated by
this complaint. A basketball event that took place in nineteen
eighty seven. Our client believed the plaintif to be over
(10:38):
eighteen and had no idea she would claim otherwise until
thirty five years later. He respects girls and women and
the claims have blindsided him and his family. A lawsuit
is asking for a jury trial and more than twenty
five thousand dollars in damaging.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
That's very suspicious. With the twenty five thousand dollars, that's
somebody I think that just wants to get back at him.
I mean twenty five thousand dollars. Usually those are twenty
five million dollar lawsuits. But man thirty five years ago,
thirty five years ago, and he thought she was eighteen
(11:20):
and she said she was fifteen. Who knows, but there's
going to be a long battle for him now, a
long battle. It changes the relationship that we all have
with them. It's, you know, I don't know, nobody knows
who the girl is it. It has a stain on
Campbell Hall as well. There's a lot going on with
(11:42):
that story, a lot going on, and if there's updates,
we will have those for you.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
But it's it's.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
Another punch in the gut for southern California.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
You know, I don't know how much more we can
take it. Seems like every day.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
You know, Back when I was growing up in the
San Fernando Valley, back in the sixties seventies, nobody ever
talked about moving out of Southern California.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
Nobody.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
I don't remember a single family that mentioned it. I
remember a single person that wanted couldn't wait till they
get out of Southern California.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
All right, cut to twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1 (12:20):
I don't know anybody who's not thinking about it, even Krozier,
who is a beautiful wife and a great life out
there in Montclairmont Claremont. Sorry, and he's even thinking about
going to South Carolina opening up a strip bar.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Do I might getting it wrong?
Speaker 6 (12:37):
Well, we don't call it a strip mall, strip mall.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
Sorry.
Speaker 6 (12:41):
I mean there'll be a strip bar in this track.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
And you did want it. It was your family that
wanted it.
Speaker 6 (12:48):
Okay, I can get away from me apparently.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
Okay, But you are thinking about moving, aren't you?
Speaker 6 (12:54):
Absolutely?
Speaker 2 (12:55):
Yeah. I think everybody is.
Speaker 6 (12:56):
Yeah, when we're done here, it's going to be somewhere else.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Yeah. And I think everybody is.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
And it's sad because it's beautiful here, it's great here.
The only person not thinking about moving ever, Mark Thompson,
he loves it here.
Speaker 2 (13:12):
Man.
Speaker 14 (13:12):
We've talked about if we could downsize enough to a
smaller place and stay in a place like Claremont where
we could somehow make it financially work when we're retired.
Speaker 2 (13:24):
Okay, but here's why it's so damn it.
Speaker 6 (13:26):
Yeah, there's so many options that we need to take place.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
Okay, but let me tell you why it's so damning.
Because I'm older than you, I can talk down to you.
I have been through Claremont about five or six times
in my life. I think it's one of the most beautiful,
underrated towns in southern California, if not the entire state.
Speaker 14 (13:45):
Man, I'll tell you what. Social media is pushing Claremont
more and more. And I don't know if I'm liking it, Okay,
but you're absolutely right because they always describe it as.
Speaker 6 (13:53):
This quaint, little quest town that nobody knows about.
Speaker 5 (13:56):
Right.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
That's changing.
Speaker 1 (13:57):
And you know what's great about Claremont And I love
this and people are going to think I'm crazy.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I love streets with.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
No sidewalks, oh yeah, and there's a bunch of them,
a few yeah, yeah. And there's no billboards there's no
fast food places that I passed.
Speaker 6 (14:16):
Nope, no drive through, no drive throughs.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
It's old school, no straight up bars. It's nineteen seventy
two in Claremont.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
Yeah, any bar has to be part of a restaurant.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Yeah. And you know, and there's five or six colleges there.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
Yeah, something like that.
Speaker 10 (14:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 14 (14:32):
And they this past Sunday they had reunions and end
of the year and proms and stuff like that. So
it's a bustling, awesome community. We walked through it all
last weekend to all the colleges, just tons of people
just having a great time.
Speaker 1 (14:45):
Whenever you go to sell your home, you and gen
you're going to sell it in eight seconds because the
schools are great, the cops show up, the fire department's great.
It's a family oriented place and in my opinion, top
five cities in California to raise the CHOB.
Speaker 14 (15:03):
I would agree with that, Yeah, easily. Yeah, it's an
incredible family city.
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
And and not enough people know about it, which I
think is good.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Yes.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
You know, like I used to live in Seal Beach
years ago, and I used to talk about how great
Seal Beach was, and nobody else was on the air
talking about Seal Beach except me, and I got a
call from the mayor. He goes, hey, it's you know mayor,
you know Bradley whatever his name was. I go, hey,
how you doing. I talk about Seal Beach out great
as all the time. He goes, yeah, yeah, could you
stop doing that? It's bringing in the riff raft. I'm like, oh, okay,
(15:37):
is that a shot.
Speaker 2 (15:38):
At me or the audience or everybody?
Speaker 5 (15:39):
I don't know.
Speaker 14 (15:42):
I'll get you know, I got a backpack that has
KFI on it, and half the time I'll take it
with me when we go on our walk. So every
once in a while I'll get somebody that'll come up
to me and either just some will actually know who
I am. That's awesome, very weird and awkward for me,
but it's cool.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
That's great, man, that's awesome.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Was recognized belliou Are you and Richie from a photo
or something?
Speaker 4 (16:06):
Richie was shopping and somebody was looking at your Instagram
or yeah, and saw a picture of Richie and I
and went up to him and said is this you?
Speaker 13 (16:18):
And I said now, because that's totally not me, but
yeah it was.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
Do you want to be bothered? Yeah? You know you're shopping.
Speaker 13 (16:25):
I was looking for some eggs. I couldn't find any.
Speaker 15 (16:29):
Speaking of being recognized, since we're on the subject, my
dad was talking to someone at the gym and he
told him how he went to the Woody Show takeover
and he's like, oh, yeah, my son works for Conway
and Mokelly.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Wait is he still foush? And he's like, yeah, that's
my son. That's all.
Speaker 15 (16:48):
That was pretty cool. And his name's Allison. So let's
get a shout out to Ellison step food. Yeah right,
he knows you buy that name. I know that. My
tech came up. He was like, yeah, I guess I
knew you buy that. Oh that's awesome, dude. That's great, buddy.
You guys are like celebrities.
Speaker 2 (17:03):
Man, it's unbelievable.
Speaker 1 (17:04):
All Right, we're watching the smoke coming out of the
Sistine Chapel.
Speaker 2 (17:08):
Is that right? It's black? So that means no Pope.
There'll be no popes tonight. Kids.
Speaker 9 (17:13):
You're listening to Tim Conway Junior on demand from KFI
AM six forty.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
All right, we've got a couple more news stories to
get to. If there's any more updates on the horrible
story that we've been following all afternoon.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
We'll give you an update on that.
Speaker 1 (17:29):
A shooting, I mean sorry, stabbing in Santa Anna outside
of a high school. It's every parent's worth nightmare. And
it happened outside of Martin Hedinger Elementary School and sant
Ana High School. Record to the sant Ana Police Department
right right before three thirty pm today, so it's only
three hours old. Three kids were stabbed or three people
(17:52):
were stabbed. One of them has passed away, and so
that's where we are. Unfortunately, that's where we are.
Speaker 5 (18:02):
All right.
Speaker 1 (18:02):
I will have updates. If we have updates on that,
we'll go to immediately. There's a thing called daylighting, which
I don't like. It's called daylighting tickets. It's happening in
San Diego. I'm not sure if they're doing it here
in LA or not. But there's a new law that
says you have to be you have to park twenty
feet or more away from a crosswalk.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
But I don't know what twenty feet is. I don't know.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
I don't know what if I'm eighteen feet away, if
I'm twenty two feet away, if I'm seventeen, I don't know.
And those the curves are not marked with red paint,
so you have no idea whether you're violating the twenty
the twenty foot rule or not, and they're.
Speaker 2 (18:42):
Gonna give you.
Speaker 1 (18:43):
They give you tickets for it because you have to
park twenty feet or more away from a crosswalk and
not even I'm not talking about crosswalks that are are
you know, in full display with the white you know,
stripes all the way across the street. Even at a
stop sign where there's no official crosswalk, you have to
(19:04):
be twenty feet away from that. You got to be
twenty feet away from everything in San Diego, twenty feet.
Speaker 5 (19:10):
I'm standing on Polk Avenue and I'll tell you parking
in this area is always tough, and now because of
this new law, there are a lot less spaces driving
down Polk Avenue in normal heights. You notice it right away.
Parking is at a premium. And it's not just.
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Here especially now. Look this is in May.
Speaker 1 (19:29):
Wait till summer comes around and there's nowhere to park
because they probably have taken a thousand parking spots away
from this area.
Speaker 5 (19:36):
It's really bad. It's really bad.
Speaker 7 (19:38):
And there, yeah, there's not a lot of room for
anybody to be here.
Speaker 5 (19:41):
Zach Gilman lives nearby in North Park and has already
gotten two daylighting parking tickets.
Speaker 7 (19:48):
If it was like a normal, like you know, like
parking ticket, like thirty bucks, I wouldn't really mind. But
one hundred and twice and like a week was crazy.
Speaker 5 (19:56):
Actually one hundred and seventeen bucks. The state law wa
into effect January first, making it illegal to park within
twenty feet of a crosswalk on the side of the
street that faces the crosswalk. Simply put, if the front
of your car face is the crosswalk, you have to
leave a twenty foot buffer zone.
Speaker 2 (20:13):
Do you hear that? That's the new rule.
Speaker 5 (20:15):
Simply put, If the front of your car face is
the crosswalk, you have to leave a twenty foot buffer zone.
Speaker 1 (20:20):
So they've written forty three hundred tickets quick math, and
at Bucks seventeen that's probably a half million dollars right
around that area. Half million, maybe a little more, maybe
a little less, right around a half million bucks taken
out of the community, out of people's wallets, because they
didn't know the rules.
Speaker 5 (20:40):
If the rear of your car face is the crosswalk,
you don't. But even today on Polk Avenue, where over
one hundred and fifteen tickets have already been issued. We
saw several cars not leaving that twenty foot buffer zone.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
And who and what a dumb rule that is?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
If the ass of your car is facing the crosswalk,
you don't have to You can be with than I
don't know, five or six tooth feet whatever, But at
the front of your car you have to be twenty
feet away. And people don't know what twenty feet is.
Speaker 8 (21:09):
People have been told that they should, but people don't
listen to because people haven't gotten the sense of God
gave a goose.
Speaker 5 (21:14):
The reason for the law.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
No, no, that's not true.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
It's they should mark those crosswalks and mark and put
a you know, a color on their red or white
or whatever and tell people not to park there. Not
everybody listens to the news all the time, So it's
not the people that are dumb.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
It's the law that's dumb.
Speaker 12 (21:32):
People have been told that they should, but people don't
listen to because people haven't gotten the sense of God
gave a goose.
Speaker 1 (21:38):
Even God, God gave a goose, sense God gave a goose.
Speaker 5 (21:41):
Forgot the sense that God gave a goose. The reason
for the law is seen.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
I do like that term though. That is a great term.
Speaker 5 (21:47):
I got the sense of God gave a goose. The
reason for the law is safety. It gives drivers more
of a clearing to see pedestrians like Alex Hoe and
his dog's furnt in Luna.
Speaker 16 (21:57):
I think anything that makes what's the guys name.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
Like Alex Hoe as dogs Fern in Luna.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
Oh the dogs otherwise Kid the dogs.
Speaker 5 (22:05):
And his dogs Fern in Luna, Fern and Luna.
Speaker 16 (22:08):
I think anything that makes pedestrians more visible to cars
is generally a good thing. I understand that some people
think North Park has a lot of parking problems, but
I think it's also a very walkable neighborhood that I
walk around a lot in, and so I appreciate any
measures that help keep pedestrians safe.
Speaker 5 (22:26):
The city has already issued over forty three hundred tickets
with the maturity of them in normal heights North Park,
in the beach communities, and consider your self warned.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
And the beach communities this summer are going to have
a thousand parking spots taken from them, a thousand.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
You can still get a ticket even if the curb
isn't painted red.
Speaker 7 (22:46):
A lot of the places aren't really marked clearly, they
say you. It could be unpainted and you could still
get a ticket for it.
Speaker 2 (22:52):
Right, it's the dumbest thing ever, dumbest thing in the world.
Speaker 5 (22:55):
And let me add to that red curb warning. Right here,
you can see the curb is painted red and I
measured it. It's twenty feet. So as long as you
park on the other side of that, you're okay. Now, however,
let me walk you across the street. You will notice
the curb is parked red over there, and although a
car is blocking it, which by the way, it could
get a ticket for daylighting. I measured the red on
(23:17):
the curb over there. It's only fifteen feet.

dot com. Ava's car rental, Well, if you've rented from Avis,
you may be driving a car that is not registered
and the cops are pulling people over thinking it's a
stolen vehicle.
Speaker 17 (24:47):
The San Lorenzo couple has just been stopped by Swanee
police in Georgia.
Speaker 10 (24:52):
Right when I said, hey, this officer is tailgating us,
his lights and sirens went off.
Speaker 18 (24:57):
Fango Charlie x Ray one four four one, My heart
dropped into my stomach.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
But they haven't done anything wrong.
Speaker 5 (25:05):
How you doing?
Speaker 19 (25:06):
Officer Cramer's twenty good?
Speaker 5 (25:08):
How are you good?
Speaker 10 (25:09):
Hey?
Speaker 19 (25:10):
I see this is a fleet car? Is this okay?
It's a rental all right? So the tag is coming
back to a different car.
Speaker 2 (25:18):
No, Oh my god.
Speaker 1 (25:21):
What if she was blowing a little weed or had
a couple of wine, glass of wine and then she
gets pulled over because AVAS didn't properly register the car and.
Speaker 19 (25:32):
It's showing that the tag is canceled. Can we can
we get go ahead? Yep? That was weird when I
ran the tag and came back to a white Chevy Malibus.
Speaker 17 (25:41):
The vehicle the couple rented is a black Honda cr V.
Officer Kramer radio is another officers who is all too
familiar with what's going on.
Speaker 1 (25:54):
Okay, so the cops know what's going on down there.
Speaker 5 (25:59):
And then it has been calling different plates on the
on the colls me it.
Speaker 18 (26:02):
Was need playing calls one the other day.
Speaker 6 (26:04):
It had been all the road.
Speaker 5 (26:05):
For like weeks and weeks as this didn't kind of
rest throw another plate on it.
Speaker 1 (26:10):
Oh my god, So it's even worse. Aviis is just
taking license plates off different cars and just throwing them
on casually. Yeah, like, oh, it doesn't matter license plates,
schmeielens plates. Ah, what doesn't matter If it's a black Hona,
you know, Accord or a white Malibu, it doesn't matter, right,
(26:30):
it's only a license plate.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
Well, it matters to the cops. These come back as
different cars. That's suspicious. That's suspicious.
Speaker 17 (26:38):
Seven on your Side Investigates reached out to Avis. In
an email statement, A spokesperson writes, quote, after a thorough review,
we can confirm the incident occurred as a result of
a system errors. Would not answer additional questions about what
that error was or how widespread it is. Back in
this parking lot, an officer explains why they pulled the
couple over.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Right, because if the license plate doesn't come back and
to the make and match of that car, that's how
people who steal cars do it. They take license plates
and mix and match them so it takes the you know,
the cops are are confused by that.
Speaker 2 (27:12):
Well, this is happening, I guess in Georgia with Avis and.
Speaker 6 (27:16):
We get a lot of cars that have put some stolen.
Speaker 2 (27:18):
This is why I told you I could be a cop.
I could be a cop.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
I knew that was going on. That's stolen cars. Often
they change out license plates to take the stink off
the fact there was a stolen car, because the license
plate comes back as registered, but it's the different make
and model of the car.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
And that cop saw it. That's a good cop. That
guy is very attentive.
Speaker 18 (27:40):
Why I mean, so we understand that we were just
you know, really and.
Speaker 2 (27:45):
Now it scares the hell out of this woman. She's
not done anything wrong, she's just rented a car, you.
Speaker 18 (27:51):
Know, really anxious and on edge the entire time they learn.
Speaker 17 (27:53):
They'll have to get their groceries out and get another ride.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
Oh no, they're going to take the car from her.
Speaker 13 (27:58):
We're gonna have to mpound the vehicle.
Speaker 16 (28:00):
We ran the van the car.
Speaker 1 (28:02):
How pissed would you be? You know, you're renting a car,
you get pulled over. You're nervous to begin with, and
then they take the car from you. You got your groceries,
maybe you've got some you know, frozies or refrigerator stuff
in there.
Speaker 3 (28:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 13 (28:16):
We're gonna have to impound the vehicle.
Speaker 16 (28:18):
We ran the van.
Speaker 5 (28:19):
The card not even registered with the state.
Speaker 18 (28:22):
To take the car to count it.
Speaker 3 (28:25):
The couple calls an uber.
Speaker 19 (28:26):
You think big companies like this, that's what happened.
Speaker 10 (28:28):
But I contacted seven on your side one week after
this happened because I was just getting a run around.
Speaker 18 (28:35):
Avis was transferring us. We were being hung up on.
Speaker 1 (28:43):

been there usually on December we rent the.

Car for mapis. That's that's exact same music. I was
on for like an hour with that same that same music.
Speaker 17 (29:02):
The officers also experiencing some delays in the field while
calling Avis. It is charging Wilson not only for the
day she couldn't use the car, but also for not
returning it.
