I heard 50 and 100 cars. Lakeham, a township welfare check[1]. 5124. I believe it's going to be near 270th Street. A female party call requesting a welfare check on a male party that recently went through a custody battle. He's got depression and he's been drinking pretty heavy. Not acting like himself. He has a loaded firearm, possibly a handgun. Wearing a bulletproof vest. The last contact was last week and he told somebody they might not see him again.
