Olegkha Posted January 21, 2012 Share #7 Posted January 21, 2012 There is no fuel line on Benson and 25 I was in Spring creek for my 19A and Dispatcher from Ulcer Park sad it was Shifter who hit two people with an MCI He also sad that the side window in that particular MCI was fogy because of its age and that could be partially the reason for knock down.
