Virginiasp 584.
00:53
What about eight miles north of Little Fork, right?
00:58
Sounds like it's going to be actually about 17 miles south of Little Fork.
01:03
They didn't give us an exact location.
01:06
It was given to us by the county, I believe.
01:12
Okay, that's up for.
01:13
I'll jump on 65 and locate it.
01:19
Copy, if we get any other updates, so I'll be posted.
01:27
I guess I just want to make sure that there's no one around and that somebody didn't get ejected.

Cut.
01:42
No,
01:43
I'm just coming off the Promise Burger.
01:45
I'll hit 65 and all hits still.
01:46
Let's see if it's down there.
01:47
Get you an update.
01:52
Don't work.
01:57
That's B584.
01:59
That's B-584.
02:01
Good.
02:03
And as far as your question goes,
02:05
if anyone was ejected, the wildlife person who called it in, said there was nobody near it, so unsure if maybe somebody's pinned under it.
02:15
We don't know any of that information yet.
02:20
Okay. He didn't happen to catch your name on the door or give you a plate number or anything like that, didn't it?
02:27
It was all given to the county, and then the county gave it to us.
02:32
Okay,
02:34
just to start, thanks.

I just spoke to a deputy.
02:52
He said that one of the foresters had run across the driver.
02:56
The driver was walking to try to get some,
03:02
like a skitter to try to get the semi off the road from, so I think the driver is okay from the sounds of that.
03:15
Okay, well that's better.
03:17
Let's try to figure out who it is.
03:23
Simple.
03:24
Yeah, it just sounded like they located as a driver.
03:28
Driver was trying to get equipment to get the stuff off the road.
03:34
Okay.
