02:27
Data Bertha 81, with a Leland address.

We've had some issues with him recently. I believe Garner had some sort of disturbance call with him at their Quickstar within the last 7 to 10 days.
02:39
I believe this guy is 1096 in some manner or another.
02:42
10-4[1]. Is there another party there?
02:53
The reporting party was an out-of-state traveler who had just stopped to walk up the Ranger Tower and go on his way. So he was just passing through and not super familiar with the area, but he captured a plate for me before he drove out of the parking lot.
03:09
He thought it might look like this (name withheld), if that's who it is,
03:15
was angry at someone else in the parking lot due to some close call on an accident, but he wasn't really sure because he didn't want to get close. So he just memorized the plate and buggyed out.
