What is the name of your state? texas
Drove into a huge traffic jam and became gridlocked. Turned out a volunteer fire dept was using jaws of life to get a guy out of a car that crashed into an apartment building. He was ok according to the news crews that were on the scene. Parked in the dry cleaners across the street...they were closed as it was Christmas. About 75 to 100 people watching the whole scene. Got out my video camera and started to film from across the street...about 400ft. Next thing I know, some volunteer fire guy comes over and puts his hand over my camera and says I cant film. I start back to my car and this kid is talking to a deputy who then comes over to me and threatens to arrest me for interfering with their investigation. He said you cant show up and film wrecks. I asked about the news crews that were there and he said they had permission. I was in a crowd of people at least 400ft away across the street. Since when is it illegal to film ANYTHING in PUBLIC.
