Do you want to continue up this? We'll go into the NOLs and see if we see anything.
00:04
Yeah, that's fine. I'm not sure.
00:05
I would have guessed uptown downtown, but across the NOLs, but I don't know.
00:08
Yeah, we'll go that way and take a look.
00:09
Tempor.
00:10
3302. 02, good.
00:13
Is there any more information from the RP or the RP's location in the Knowles where they might have gotten eyes on this so we can try to recreate it and see where they're calling it in at.
00:21
My RP was standing at the village.
00:23
She said she was passing by and it's across the street from the Knowles on the bike path.
00:29
Okay, thank you. We'll keep looking there.
00:30
3302, do you want me to call the RP again?
00:33
All right, if that's all the information they have, that's probably fine.
00:36
We'll keep looking. That's just nothing obvious yet.
00:38
10-4[1], let me give them a call.
00:40
Station 1, information only.
00:41
We have a full crew ready to go.
00:42
What are your needs?
00:43
Station 1, let's hold.
00:44
I mean, it's still wet out here and there is zero visible that we've seen so far, so let's hold until we actually see if we got something.
00:50
Two-month copies. And give it another 30 seconds, we might get more calls, so be ready to go for the next one.
00:54
I made contact with the RV.
00:56
She's at the village now.
00:57
And a bit ago, she could see some smoke behind the tree house.
01:01
She thinks that the rain possibly put it out.
01:03
O2 copies, thank you.

01:13
Go ahead, 31.
01:14
Now we're pulled off, parked by the treehouse.

I'm going to have the guys take a walk back behind here, see if we got anything.

You've been advised.

Station 2, I've got 31 on the incident at the treehouse, there's still nothing showing, nothing there's going to walk around to investigate, but I'd like to hold you guys until I get eyes on this thing at 203 at Moranians to see if there's something that we can help with.
