end of it. i don t know any case in maritime history where a person destroyed another ship and walked away without repercussions. larry: you know what the name bob barker means, he will be here. what is the ship? an individual that put up some funds to purchase 2/3 of the vessel. and so we named it after him for that reason. larry: do you think captain swift about taking risks? absolutely. any time we get involved with these kind of actions there are risks. we are all briefed. we all know what is possible down there. our resolve, our passion, determination to shut down illegal activities overrides all of that. larry: fiona, do you have a specific duty on the ship? yes, i was rescue swimmer. put up my hand, not thinking it would be a significant accident. and i was also deck hand. so, you know, painting and sanding and launching the small boats and learned a lot. very different from my normal commercial property job, that is for sure. larry: laurens, how did you get involv
risks. we are all briefed. we all know what is possible down there. our resolve, our passion, determination to shuttle down illegal activities overrides all of that. larry: fiona, do you have a specific duty on the ship? yes, i was rescue swimmer. put up my hand, not thinking it would be a significant accident. and i was also deck hand. so, you know, painting and sanding and launching the small boats and learned a lot. very different from my normal commercial property job, that is for sure. larry: laurens, how did you get involved in all enough snis. i was a former crime investigator for the dutch police. after doing that for three years, and before that, working five years on the streets, my specialty became environmental crimes. i got so involved in the atrocities that are happening to the animals around the world. one of the animals are the whales. i thought if we can t protect the species, what can we protect. i decided to give up my job and
no fatalities, reporters at the scene are telling us. okay. head and neck injuries, of course, when you hear the description previously as we have been given of minor injuries, you ve got to wonder, head and neck, that s not how you want to have an injury. do you have any description of what people are dealing with, like cuts, bruises or i don t have that, but i do know that a triage area has been set up down at the ferry terminal itself. and a lot of the victims are being treated right there at the scene. okay. and i understand by another reporter that was on the scene that a lot of them have been able to leave, which certainly bodes well for people being able to recover from this. what about reports of one serious injury? we did hear that earlier, but we have not been able to confirm that. we heard later on that they were just they were nonlife threatening injuries. okay. is there a hospital nearby? yes, there is. there s richmond university medical center, and i un
hospital for evaluation, because some of the deck hands actually helped to lower the bridge to brace the impact as the boat came in too fast into the slip. apparently, the deck hands this is what we re hearing from callers to the newspaper. the deck hands sort of jumped to the scene and lowered the bridge to brace the boat and lessen the impact. okay. so now i m trying to figure out what that would be in terms of lowering the bridge. you being there on staten island, i m sure you use the ferry more frequently than i do. that would be to basically create an impact to keep the ferry from going further into the terminal? yeah, there is a bridge that gets lowered as the ferry docks into the slip. a bridge is lowered to connect the terminal to the boat. and apparently this bridge was used this was what one of the callers told us, about a deck hand who participated and tried to brace the impact or lessen the impact of the boat. claire, are you hearing what was reported over the lou
he is touting all of these endorsements he s gotten from national conservative figures. he just puts them all under a banner that calls them alaskans. who cares? the democrat in the race, scott mcadams, he just released his first campaign ad. see if you can notice the difference in strategy. this is a long way from d.c. i m scott mcadams and i m not your usual senate candidate. i grew up in petersberg, was a deck hand in the behring sea, married up. i ve been a teacher, a mayor, and a dad. here s the difference between me, joe and lisa. they think this campaign is all about them. i think it s about alaska. getting our fair share. i approved this message because after you ve been cursed at in the region, you can take on anyone. did you catch the tag line there? it s about alaska. that s essentially his slogan. it s about alaska. local, local, local. that s how the democrat scott mcadams is running in alaska. now on the front page of joe
