03:03
Break,

Main I see Red Buff.
03:08
Additionally, received a call from the alarm company stating to cancel response.
03:19
I have an active alarm,
03:21
we will continue to investigate until alarm has been reset.
03:41
Go to the Knox.
03:43
And to the rear of the building,
03:47
check the specular room, please.
03:55
Chief One.
03:57
Chief One go.
03:58
Yeah, that was the manager of Ross that I was talking to,
04:02
apparently property owner, sent somebody to look at an HVAC, and they opened some kind of water valves,
04:09
and she stated that's when the alarm went active.
04:11
They were able to silence it in the Ross.
04:16
But this might be a setup that it needs to be silenced in Marshals, and then also the main house panel in the riser room, like where Engine 3 was headed.
04:28
That's a good copy.
04:29
Thank you. So no active alarm in Roth, just marshals.
04:33
Yeah, negative anymore, she was able as soon as they stopped the water, she reset it,
04:38
it stopped.
04:40
So she was pretty adamant that as soon as that valve was open, that's when the alarm immediately initiated.
04:50
I'm comfortable with sent an agent three on their assignment.
04:53
Division one, he's bird-dogging in marshals, and I can probably make truck one available at scene.
04:59
Can you incur?
05:00
Yeah, that's a firm note, but I think engine 3 is going to the knocks at the front rather than at the riser room.
05:06
And again, I can't remember the systems in here were kind of odd.
05:11
I think the panel in Marshalls might reset the whole thing, but if not, it might be reset at the overall alarm system, that's in with the riser room.
05:27
Division I see.
05:29
I see.
05:31
It sounds like you may have silenced the alarm inside Marshalls.
05:37
I was able to reset the whole alarm.
05:39
We're on, back to normal.
05:42
I copy. I'm just going to have Engine 3 check the panel on the back.
05:46
Um,
05:48
and we'll go from there, sound good.
05:50
Sounds good to me.
05:51
I never met contact with this.
05:57
I was able to communicate, our response was still going to continue until we found the
06:05
reason the alarm was activated.
06:06
Sounds like we did.
06:12
The alarm,
06:13
division, or excuse me, engine three and myself will remain at sane for approximately five minutes.
06:22
All their units are available.
06:27

The traffic.
06:43
I mean,
06:47
I see Red Buff wanting to confirm that truck one made it to seen.
06:53
Revloff, Mani has a firm at the same time as Engine 3.
06:57
They're now available with Division 1.
07:05
Agent 3, Maynesty.
07:07
Go ahead.
07:12
Can you repeat what you just said?
07:15
There is water coming down the downspouts, the three of them back here.
07:18
I'm not sure if the leak was on the roof, like she did this.
