Well, they were all on foot, and they walked, like, there's that building just to the northeast of Amico, like, almost connected,
00:08
and they walked back behind that building.
00:11
So I'm guessing that they're trying to call for somebody else to come and pick them up, but they might have at least a firearm on them.
00:21
Gabby.
00:27
And if you find them, go out with you, you'll have a health in 1 and 12 close.
00:36
Yeah.
00:42
Okay. Some breathing,
00:43
having some breathing issues.
00:52
Hey, I'm not sure what you guys are on or...
00:58
looking for but right about the same time you went out with a traffic stop I had how that E6 and university and red sedan pulled off on me and they've been just walking out with school here waiting for me to leave I don't know if that's going to be associated at all
01:23
Yeah, I'm not sure.
01:25
Just four males and then one male on a bicycle and a mask with a black backpack all walked away from this car.
01:35
We stopped the car and then there's a firearm light in here and our 18-year-old driver has warrants for stolen motor vehicles, I think, and stuff.
01:46
There's no firearm in this car,
01:50
so I'm just guessing that one of them has a firearm on them.
01:54
They were going in and out of the store quite a bit.
02:04
There's still parts and they're probably not going to be leaving for a while, but it was a red bull to lightengetta occupied by four black tails.
02:15
That helps, so I'll just stay in the area if you have anything.
02:21
Yeah, if I remember correctly, I think most of them were wearing black hoodies.
02:27
I think one might have had a gray hoodie,
02:30
but they were all black males looked taller, maybe over six foot, they were all skinny.
02:39
Okay,
02:41
yeah, there's one wearing red, pajama pants,
02:46
and a gray hoodie,
02:50
and then there's one, it's a little heavier set, but they're both pretty tall, and all black.
03:00
... Amico pretty quick, so I don't know if they were able to get into a car or not.

that Volkswagen agenda but I'll keep checking for a couple more minutes.
03:47
Okay,
03:49
