  1. Where was the bus parked? I have seen the bus picking up from the Capitol parked in the street in the traffic lane, both on 7th. & even on 9. An accident waiting to happen.

  2. U guys are awful..the scoop reserved its right to stay out of personal stories, not trying to hide anything, so stop hating on the scoop or on us jews..if u wanted to read the news about that ponzi guy from lakewood u have plenty of ways to. So stop bashing and hating…its not about protecting one of our own, we are all disturbed by such actions and dont agree with it so dont make it sound otherwise.

  3. A ponzi scheme is not personal business. It is very public and hurt many, many people and charity organizations. How you can’t tell the difference between public and private is beyond understanding. Is it fair reporting only if it is about black or Mexican people? If you are going to put news about blacks and Mexicans breaking the law, no one should be excluded.
    That my friend is Black and Mexican hating. If you choose to call writing aobut Jews breaking the law, Jew hating, it’s your problem.

  4. Ok to all. This was a very serious accident and the response of emergency crews was correct for the 9 patients. Many nissim happened tonight. Yet there are ones who will need our tefillahs for a lengthy recovery.

    Its easy to blog when you have nothing to state.

  5. Please cover the ponzi story it will hopefully prevent further schemes and Chilul Hashem especially that this story generates from lakewood n there are many many innocent choshuve. victims who lost their wealth and homes coz of this Lakewood person,I’m sure everyone reading the scoop agrees with my comment

  6. It was mamash a kidush hashem to see the achdus between Lakewood Hatzolah & Lakewood First Aid members working together helping the patients. MI K’AMCHA YISROEL!!!

  7. This is all very sad and heart breaking a tragedy like this should warrent our sympathy and tfilos but it appears many people here are only concerned about petty issues like reporting was only done because it involved goyishi drivers or negative comments like why were people watching the scene, please everyone focus on what is expected of heimishi yiden at this sad and serious time, only a week ago an entire family of 7 yiden was wiped out killed in a mini van-train collision and murun harav elyashiv said its an unprecedented incident since the holocaust which should warrent every charedi jews self reflection, are we to ignore these words and carry on saying this is all mikre and allow petty foolish thoughts to still clog our minds!

  8. Allow me to modify my previous comment and correct myself this was not a tragedy as such because nobody was killed Buruch Hashem, and so calling this a tragedy is wrong and therefore I would like to express my apologies and request a modification of my previous comment.
    But the incident is still worrying and my sympathy and tfilois go out to the 9 patients, and would the lakewood scoop please post the patients names and mothers names for us to daven for and to learn extra hours and do acts extra acts of chesed so that these patients have a refua shlaima.
    Thanks and tizku limitzvus, you do great work.
