00:03
We have a large water main break with the water actually going into the power lines.
00:10
Ruthie. How are y'all doing? Are y'all able to get next to river at all?
00:13
Yes, we are approaching the back of the river right now.
00:17
I think I see three more right here.
00:18
Stand by. Received. If y'all are a spot where y'all can throw a throw bag and kind of help pull them in or get them on ashore, because you're going to start running out of real estate on River Left.
00:28
Command, this is Davis.
00:29
We have the rest of the victims.
00:30
They are all on dry land that accounted for.
00:32
That is fantastic.
00:33
So you have three plus two, so that's five.
00:35
Is that correct? That is correct.
00:36
We are with the last three right now.
00:37
All right, copy.
00:38
Can y'all punch them out to the blacktop?
00:40
Working on it now.
00:41
Good copy. Truck 51, command.
00:43
Go for short 41.
00:44
Go ahead.
00:45
Hey, Barney, I don't know how deep you're into it.
00:48
If you just want to send 10, or two of your crew, down River Road to tie in with Davis, and if you want to hang back, you're fine, but all the victims are on dry land.
00:56
Command, this is Davis.
00:57
We have two patients here that are unable to ambulate to the blacktop.
01:02
We're attending to their care right now, but we're going to need some help getting them up to the blacktop.
01:07
All right, good copy.
01:09
Chuck, disregard what I said.
01:11
He found busted down to Davis's location, and I'm going to said 54 over to y'all.
01:15
We're up here at the road above Davis.
01:19
We'll leave someone up here so 54 knows where we're at.
01:23
All right, good copy.
01:25
Hey, Davis, this command.
01:26
Go ahead.
01:27
We do probably have two more that are further downstream, Abby and Juana.
01:33
They are further down, probably river left.
01:35
Sam by, we may have a cell phone access.
01:36
Davis, according to the patients that I'm with right now, this is everybody.
01:41
There's nobody else in the water.
01:43
All right, good copy.
01:44
Okay, okay, 1-501.
01:46
Rep. 54, too much feedback.
01:47
Repeat. Yes, sir, we're over here.
01:48
We met up with Kevin.
01:49
And he told us that we were instructed by, I guess, part of that's a stage on the road.
01:54
So we're staging right here on the road.
01:55
That's good copy.
01:56
If we can, if we have no patients or anything like that, if we can lease load everybody up and then get them over here, we'll get everybody counted for, and then we'll clear up.
02:05
Are you? This is Barnett.
02:06
We're going to have two patients.
02:08
We're going to carry them up the road.
02:11
We're going to try to make access into this property because we can't get them over this fence.
02:15
All right, good copy.
02:16
Just make yourselves known that deputy is not here yet.
02:19
But we're all good.
02:20
We can slow this process down.
02:21
I do think that we have everybody accounted for, so take your time, knock on doors, and see if we can gain access the safe way.
