I know I know, it's been weeks since I've posted. But I'm finally back at it and I promise I will post very frequently from here on out.
I'm posting one of the gang unit ride-along stories Lissa and I did. We shot them over the course of a couple weeks and they aired the end of last month. We had an amazing time learning so much from the unit. Thanks to Capt. Leo Eggert, Sgt. Rick Moreno, Officer Bill Noon, and the entire gang unit who kept us safe and made the whole thing look great.

About Me
- Todd Gaertner
- Since 2004, my job as a photojournalist with 13ABC has allowed me to take part in events that made an impact on Toledo history. In October 2005, Sashem Brey and I were the first news team on the scene of a Neo-Nazi rally that erupted into a riot which made national headlines. It was an experience to remember; we were exposed to large amounts of tear gas and were eventually forced to run to our Jeep for safety. In February of 2006, I was the only Toledo photojournalist with on-the-field credentials for SuperBowl XL at Ford Field. I spent the entire week prior attending news conferences in Detroit, featuring stars like Aretha Franklin and the Rolling Stones – and conducting interviews with personalities like ESPN’s Chris Berman and Tom Arnold of FOX Sports. In February 2007, Bill Hormann and I spent hours reporting live from the intersection where Toledo Police Detective Keith Dressel was shot and killed. As the search for a shooter reached its 8th hour, Bill and I saw the prime suspect being led out of the same house we had just interviewed someone in just 30 minutes before!
