Utah, try to get a vantage point from their residents near Apollo Road.
00:05
They've said they can see what seems to be a very large fire from their location.
00:10
Apollo Road.
00:11
That's not aware of that.
00:12
This is going to be near Apollo Road.
00:16
The man out that way.
00:17
Tempo, sir.
00:18
I'm there not there. Show me an area again.
00:20
I thought is I just got to find out where it's coming from.
00:22
Jim! 1,300 I think it was here when I'm trying to pull in.
00:26
800 on which road?
00:27
I'm sorry, off Ridgefield Road.
00:28
There is a very big fire back here.
00:30
I don't see any buildings around it, but this is not the road I need to be on.
00:34
I can't get to it.
00:35
I'm going to try to get closer some different way here.
00:37
I'm going from Steve's card responding.
00:39
I'm going out of 17.
00:40
I'm sorry hard count that address was one zero three zero three zero well pulled in but I can't find access to it yet.
00:50
Yeah, I'm sorry. Did you say I was the only one from Stevenberg that is wrong responded so far?
00:54
Now that we've got the address near down a little bit more, it looks like this address has been calling in a control burn on the second and third of this month for this location.
01:06
Yeah, that's a little bit further away from London and five, but that's not Charles.
01:10
That's, I'm pretty sure that's what this is.
01:12
Out in the middle of a field, obscured by some wooded area almost across from the school,
01:18
I'm guessing they either failed to extend it or give us a call back.
01:22
That is correct.
01:24
So I'm just having trouble access and actually getting up to it.
01:27
I'm still probably 150 yards away from it.
01:31
I'll call her, ring back, see if I can't make contact, figure out what he's actually burning and what's going on at the...
01:38
There's a SOU word out here with me.
01:40
There was one that was driving by, he was heading towards a secondary call.
01:43
Okay, I was going to have another white charger to keep circling around me that has failed to make contact with me.
01:51
Okay, 07. I need your report to the station, please.
01:53
A ringbacked caller, they ringback, left a voicemail on his phone, trying to get some information from...
02:00
Thank you.
02:01
This is complete access, but I know that the Stevensburg Lake is there.
02:06
There's a residence near Franklin Crossroads Road that seems to have a back road that goes into the field there.
02:16
I'm not sure if that's where the caller is at or if that would be a good access point.
02:20
I'm okay I'm gonna go ahead and row show 9071 in service and 901 out of service once I get that I got better full wheel access.
02:33
701. And again, that address is near Franklin Crossroads Road.
02:37
It seems like there's a road behind the residence that leads back into this large field.
02:42
Kind of cuts over the lake there.
