Welcome to Gaston County Scanner Radio News.
We cover around the clock news in Gaston County and surrounding areas.
We have multiple editors on our team helping post news incidents who are all volunteers (we don’t get paid a salary). Gaston County Scanner Radio is not affiliated with any Police, Fire, EMS or any government agency. We are a local news website.
On our social media pages, we post breaking news in real time. Not all information is 100% accurate and complete since we are relaying what dispatchers and first responders report over the radio. On our website, we post news articles with more in-depth information on them.
Our social media page is not always monitored or covered 24/7. We don’t get paid a salary since we are volunteers and have other things to do, so please remember we miss some incidents.
We will answer questions you have.
Get In Touch with us via Facebook, messenger or Email. (Messenger for a quicker response)
We would like to say welcome to all our new followers (if you are new). We would also like to take a minute to address some rules, since we have so many new followers and need to address a set of rules.
This page is here to keep you informed of events that are happening in Gastonia and Gaston County and surrounding areas.
These rules are final and are not up for debate.
