OFFICIAL NATO Summit Coverage -- May 21, 2012

Good morning, everyone, it's 12am. This post will have the official NATO Summit coverage for today, May 21, 2012. The NATO Summit will be covered her via a police scanner, on Zone 4 (1st and 18th Districts) and Zone 2 (19th District). There are a couple of demonstrations underway in Downtown, and you never know what will happen, so I'll have my ears on throughout the night until 4:47am, then I'm switching over to Zone 2 for an hour.
