Apparently, there's cars backed up on both sides now, and they're not letting anyone go through, and it's going to cause an accident, according to the callers.

It doesn't seem to be power.

Dear, Claire,
02:39
you don't want me to call AEP. I don't know if they'll send somebody for that.
02:46
They don't need to come, but somebody has to get this line off,
02:53
maybe a bucket truck of some sort.
02:55
Probably Spectrum or Winston, I'm not sure which one it belongs to. I'm trying to get an aim off the wire.
