Transcript:
00:00
Hearing six information front units in the area of Parsons and Williams,
00:04
near Parsons Avenue at the Marathon.
00:06
Looks like we're getting a second coa.
00:09
Female with pink hair or pink highlights, driving a silver Grand Prix.
00:15
Southbound,
00:17
she's going southbound in the northbound lanes, which means she's probably going toward the county.
00:23
Is there anyone far south?
00:29
Several mailboxes if we get anybody on 13, 9130 can get that way.
00:38
Copy from South.
00:42
Advising County as well, in case she gets on 270.
00:46
Let's see.
00:52
Now I was thinking High Street, Williams.
00:58
We're getting multiple calls on this female.
01:05
She's coming up to Obetz now, they're getting counting on the phone.
01:10
Looks like she made a right, I think you can only go left.
01:19
Went right onto Obetz, it's going out toward High Street.
01:27
9130, we got your MDC Emergency Banner.
01:34
All right, it looks like she just crashed.
01:37
Maybe Parsons in Ashwood.
01:40
I hit a pole.
01:45
I don't think she made it up to Obetz.
01:51
Unless she hit the pole and continued on.
01:59
2130 something happened with your MBC, it put you on a 3 at Annal wardrobe.
02:08
She didn't go anywhere.
02:10
It's probably her person in Ashwood because somebody said the vehicle is smoking.
02:19
Somebody else to wreck.
02:31
3-1 and 3.3.
02:33
He's in the hotel.
02:34
He's coming down.
02:40
19111-11 if you want to start that way.
02:46
I'm not sure if it's her that hit the pole or if she continued down Obetz because Ashwood is actually north of Obetz.
02:57
1030 they need a mid-watch car for the guard duty at first or Lockwood and Marion to 9161.
03:05
It looks like you're the only one clear right now.
03:12
9161, copy.
03:18
1191 if your hair is clear.
03:20
1191, go ahead.
03:23
Hey, ma'am, we'll be clear over on Manning Code 4.
03:26
I copy.
03:27
I have a second one.
03:34
Go ahead.
03:36
Can you put me on a 16A at the infound line?
03:39
Okay.
03:45
...9130. I'm on the phone now with CFG to C if that's a silver Grand Prix.
03:53
Finally 130, repeat then.
03:56
Okay, so you guys are looking for a silver Grand Prix that went southbound in the northbound lanes.
04:00
It supposedly went southbound on Parsons, then turned westbound on Obetz.
04:06
And then north of that, at Parsons and Ashwood, there is a car that's into a pole.
04:11
So I'm checking to see if that's the car that you guys are looking for.
