Is this a tow truck for this vehicle already?
00:02
He said he was coming for the semi.
00:03
I'm going to send this southbound, or this northbound traffic that was trapped in.
00:08
I'm going to send them. Send them. It won't bother us.
00:14
It'd be just a few more minutes, 1570[3], we'll be able to run it south also.
00:18
Pretty safe the way it is, just leave it like this.
00:21
What's that?
00:22
I'm being slower and pretty good the way it is right now.
00:24
Continue doing what you're doing and we'll be safe.
00:26
Okay, I'll check with the towing here and see how long it's going to take them.
00:32
If it's going to be extended, we'll get one lane so we can get as many people freed up as we can.
00:36
Copy that, Chief.
00:37
What do I have for traffic at Minard Run?
00:40
C15[2] to traffic control at the minard run in 219.
00:44
1510, C15[2]. You need something at minard run on free.
00:47
I'm just trying to determine who's up there.
00:49
At this time,
00:50
1570[3] says he wants to leave the southbound traffic running the way it is.
00:55
I still got a little bit of stuff trapped in here between us that I want to get moved.
00:59
And I was trying to find out what I had that mine had running 219, they don't answer.
01:04
I can run around High Street and check on that if you like.
01:06
The King County from SWOX-15-2.
01:11
SWOG-15-2. County, who do you have on the air for the traffic control South Avenue, might have run, I believe they're from Station 6?
01:22
Once keep six left there, they say they're set fire face up there, we have many contact me.
01:27
Make up a quick.
01:28
I want to be RMC 1901.
01:30
County M.A3 and Florida is available.
01:33
MA3[4] available 1901.
01:34
County Squad 151[1] and Quarters.
01:37
Squad 51 in quarters. Squad 51 in court, 1903, yeah.
01:39
She's 15 to 1570[3].
01:41
If you're okay with traffic, they've got a plan to try to get this thing moved.
01:46
It's still probably going to be an hour plus.
01:47
But if we leave this section road shut down, it'd definitely be safer for them to work.
01:51
Everything seems to be flowing the way it is, Dan, and I'm out in the open where people can see me, so let's just leave it the way it is.
01:59
Okay. Your second big tow truck is Owens' way just going up the southbound on-ramp headed your way.
02:05
Okay, on second tow truck, these track vehicles that we have between the scene and Owensway, we're going to get them moved south here and get as much of it out of the way as we can.
02:15
So everybody on scene, be advised.
02:17
There will be traffic flowing south here momentarily.
02:20
Okay, Cammy, MA1.
02:21
NMA1 is going to be on location via unseen.
02:23
And I want for effort 1905.
02:26
It is now flowing southbound here.
