I was able to advise that the female is injured or just needing help up out of the yard and back in the residence.
02:28
I asked her she was injured and she said her leg sort of felt funny.
02:32
She didn't know she was injured or not bleeding, just laying out in the yard, advised her nephew tried to get her up and he couldn't get her up.
02:39
Okay.
02:41
In that case, just to dot her eyes across their T's, if you don't mind to go ahead and set off Damascus Fire Department to bring the gator, again, like I said a minute ago, if I'm not mistaken, I don't think an ambulance leave and get up that driveway,
02:56
she'll bring the gator out, and if need be, we can bring her out on it.
