02:42
Copy. I did not get it changed, so we're good to go for now.

Thank you.
02:53
1537.
02:57
It's five out of ten.
03:03
Ten.
03:07
Maybe the wrong mileposts.
03:09
This is actually going to be the same crash that Command 50's at.
03:12
You can show me out with him.
03:16
Okay, 1537.

03:40

03:42
I've got another truck dead in the water here behind me.
03:46
We're barely making it through.
03:52

03:58
Control's update.
04:02
Hartford again.

The driver-declined medical minor front damage has a family member en route to tow her out, and they gave a different location.
04:20
They now said 3,400 block of Laplata County Road 501.
04:27
Okay, I'm not too far out.
04:29
I'll go see if you want to report, depending on the damage.
04:39
Thank you, 1540.
04:40
I think it was 5'2 to call out something just a second ago.
04:47
It was digital for me.
04:48
What was that?
04:53
It was that there was a truck of some sort behind her that they were barely making it through.
05:06
All right, I'll come heading that way here, but it's going to take me a bit, I think.
05:14
Copy. I will clear you from the motorist assist on Highway 84 and attach you to her call.
05:26
Yeah,
05:27
county has been through the area and they basically took care of every, it's just that they could find.
05:32
So I think 84 is pretty good.
05:34
It's mostly just wet now down there.
05:40
1541.
05:43
Okay.
05:47
10. 10. 10.
05:54
This driver is okay, he's refusing med, but he will need a tow if you could call the next rotation place.
06:01
It's a,
06:03
just a white Tahoe and the rear left is defeated.
06:22
Truly.
06:26
This is going to be a public tow.
06:31
Phil's called back.
06:32
Apparently a gentleman contacted them last night regarding this vehicle.
06:37
He was told to contact us regarding the crash.
06:41
And then he was supposed to call them back this morning but did not.
06:45
So there's no name or number that they have right now.
