First and most importantly, my condolences to all family and friends connected with in the fatal accident that occurred overnight Friday.

Some behind the scenes info… We have equipped The Oklahoman’s reporters with cameras for breaking news situations, such as fires and such. Chris Landsberger did a great job of shooting video of his interview with the OKC police office at the scene. He also shot b-roll of the crash scene.

Robert Medley also interviewed Sgt. Paco Balderrama, OKC police PIO, back at the cop shop for more official comments.

The video, posted early Friday morning, has received an amazing amount of views. Click on the above embedded video for more information about the accident.
