News comes to Graciette

By Kevin Roderick | April 7, 2010 12:50 PM

Fox 11 reporter Gigi Graciette was in the Calexico area, preparing to cross the border to Mexicali on earthquake duty, when she tweeted this a little while ago:

Man just collapsed in front of my photographer. Having heart attack. Called 911 and was able to translate his med history. Amb here now. Wow.

Nine minutes later she gives the all clear: "OK, heading over border to #Mexicali now. Will have some very interesting news tonight regarding the earthquake."
