Top stories
- Gas odor empties Wilson-area home overnight; no readings found. At 00:49 Station 7 (Engine 7-1, Battalion 3) was paged to a home on South Sage Meadow Road [suspect — transcribed variously as "Stage/Page Meadow"] for a smell of gas; the occupant had opened windows. Crews staged outside the neighborhood, Battalion 3 walked the house with a meter, and all units stood down at 01:13 with no measurable gas.
- Two carbon monoxide alarms in 35 minutes, both negative. Engine 11 responded at 13:02 to a residential CO alarm on North Quiet Ridge Lane (occupants evacuated, no symptoms) and cleared at 13:34 with no readings; dispatch noted another CO alarm in the area earlier this month with trace levels. A second page at 13:36 sent Engine 11 and a command unit to No Name Street; cleared 13:47 — faulty alarm, no readings.
- Man's foot run over in the Sidewinders parking lot, West Broadway. At 17:45 dispatch sent officers to the lot where the RP was trying to keep the involved vehicle, a silver Prius, from leaving; EMS was paged at 17:49 for a 31-year-old male. EMS cleared at 18:01 with no patient; officers ran follow-up checks on the pedestrian and a witness and cleared to a report by 18:37. A related 17:51 broadcast ("vehicle versus gear" [suspect — possibly "ped"]) described a light SUV last seen toward town.
- Family disturbance turns physical in evening call. At 18:52 dispatch reported a disturbance "staying physical" — an intoxicated 36-year-old male in confrontation with his father, residence occupied by at least three with dogs. Multiple sheriff's units responded; cleared to a report at 19:08.
- Commercial fire alarm at Moose Creek Townhomes, Teton Village. Teton Village Fire was paged at 20:31 to West Michael Drive; the alarm was sounding in an unoccupied unit with nothing showing. Crews gained access, killed the breaker, advised neighbors, and cleared at 21:03 with property management to be notified in the morning.
- Out-of-state welfare check on a child comes back okay. At 17:33 a Florida child-services RP requested a welfare check on a female child staying with her father locally; the officer made contact and reported the juvenile code four at 18:04.
Also on the air
A steady patrol day: roughly 43 plate checks and 24 records checks, 10 traffic stops (nearly all verbal warnings — speed, turn signal, flashing red, road signs; one citation on a plateless Ford Transit on WY-22 at 16:31). Four local driving complaints: a 4Runner leaving McDonald's erratically at 05:38 (UTL by 05:48), a white SUV reportedly at 90 mph in the wrong lane eastbound on WY-22 at 06:00, an overweight double-trailer semi holding up WY-22 traffic at 17:53, and an F-150 that nearly hit a pedestrian or dog near Pearl/Glenwood [suspect] at 19:58. WYDOT's weigh-in-motion system flagged overweight trucks crossing Teton Pass at 08:28, 08:53 and 09:16, with Jackson units intercepting; a motorist with overheating brakes parked a Tundra at Coal Creek at 12:43. School-bus channel traffic included at least three red-light violations at bus stops (one by a Town of Jackson Public Works pickup at Snow King, 15:29) and two illegal school-bus passings reported to dispatch. Two parking complaints, two alarm calls (a West Broadway commercial alarm at 09:01 checked secure), two courtesy transports, a rescue helicopter repositioning flight at 09:39, and a cross-border harassment report (RP lives in Victor, ID) referred to Jackson PD at 17:31.
By the numbers
- 1,531 transmissions across 466 exchanges (204 short status-only exchanges omitted from the detailed log).
- Busiest talkgroup: TG 1801 Teton County law dispatch, 896 transmissions (~59%).
- Busiest hour: 16:00–17:00 with 148 transmissions; 23:00 hour was silent.
- Categories: status 181, unclassified 152, plate-check 43, records-check 24, transit 17, fire 10, traffic-complaint 10, traffic-stop 10, medical 9, plus small counts of alarms, welfare, animal, noise/parking, warrant-ops and one crash.
Caveats
- Not Teton County traffic: TG 13751 is Fremont County EMS/fire paging (Lander/Riverton/Hudson calls) and TG 109 is statewide WHP — the I-80 truck fire that closed the interstate near MP 68 at 13:16 and the day's many I-80 traffic complaints are Sweetwater County. TG 113 and TG 1404 items are also largely out-of-county.
- Machine transcription is rough today: street names varied between repeats (Sage/Stage/Page Meadow), several unit numbers and plates are unreliable, and the 17:51 "vehicle versus gear" broadcast is ambiguous. TG 1812 is unlabeled but clearly school-bus operations.
- The 09:39 helicopter destination ("Luther Meadows") and the 20:59 park name are low-confidence transcriptions.
