The following is a textual linkset of social media shares via the BuffScan Facebook Page and the BuffScan X feed. This list is provided to stimulate and support the decentralized spotter community.
Based on sweep at 8:01 PM EST, 1/5/26.
- Response porn by The Buffalo Blotter (Video). These are always a thrill to see!
- From Buffalo Fire Department-Helmets & Hose Wagons: BFD Dispatcher Marvin Jones is retiring. I wonder if the scanner heads among us would recognize his voice? Congrats and thank you for your service!
- Buffalo Fire & Rescue On Scene shares their photos of an MVA that occurred on Goodell
- Also from Buffalo Fire & Rescue: Unsure of what's happening here, or where, but it looks like Buffalo Fire handling a smoldering -- boat? -- fire. Here's another album from them of the same. Not enough of this? Turns out Buffalo Street News 716 made it there and captured this video and created their own image gallery, not to mention provided a live feed from the scene.
- A Buffalo Street News 716 follower sent them this video of a blown manhole cover.
- Buffalo Street news 716 also shares this Buffalo Police response porn. A gun call on Lovejoy per Buffalo Street News 716 of which they also published the detainment of 2 individuals. Here's their image gallery of the same.
- Buffalo Street News 716 published a video of an MVA on the 90 West sent to them by another driver. Be careful out there!
- And the shooting doesn't stop with just one. Buffalo Street News 716 posted this video of a shooting on Fernhill Avenue (and this image gallery).
- Crazy. Radio traffic gives a report of a man with a firearm at what I think I hear as the Hamburg Street overpass! According to Erie County Blotter, troopers showed up but there's no information on what happened after that.
- And, just when you thought things weren't batty enough, the Erie County Blotter proves you wrong.
** If you operate a digital place for the presentation of captured news and drama and would like to be regularly reviewed for BuffScan's "Spotters on the Spot", please let me know. But, that's nothing compared to this 5 car pile up on the 190 South!
BuffScan Pokey Report
The following are fresh listings in the publicly distributed Erie County Jail Roster as of yesterday 1/4.
- BOLTZ, JACK
- CARNEY, TYSHAWN D
- IMPERI, ZACHARY T
- KHULAQI, OBAD
- OESTERLE, GREGORY
- SCHAMBER, AMY

** In providing this convenient aggregate listing please keep in mind the following: Incarceration in county jail does not imply guilt - statistically, most inmates are in fact legally innocent and are only incarcerated pending further legal proceedings. As well, many circumstances including mental health and addiction issues can lead to behavioral turbulence and conflicts with society that result in jail. In noting incarceration status please adopt a compassion-first regard. For a variety of reasons the given list may not be all inclusive of those individuals actually processed.
