We just had a call from an individual that's near Ladd Road in the township.
00:04
They're on oxygen. Their oxygen isn't working because their electric is out.
00:09
You guys would be on this for a dispatch for a public assist. Would you have anybody available to assist her?
00:16
Not that I know of off the top of my head.
00:20
Can you just dispatch the ambulance to it?
00:24
Okay. Okay.
00:26
And then we'll see what's going on, appearing. If we can get freed up, we can maybe figure something out, but right now, descendant, uh, 26.
00:35
I mean,
00:38
with Patrol 16, I can return back to go to that if we don't have a fire.
00:50
Sorry, as far as we know, there was no fire, the caller did indicate that they did not see any arcing or sparks or smokes.
01:05
510 to 164 on Med 2.
01:09
4. 24, go ahead.
01:15
If you want to, you have to end up leaving oxygen there for them,
01:21
by all means, if you want to go up there and handle that for us and we can kind of scope this out, you can.
01:28
My hopes was 26, maybe get an ambulance there and drop some oxygen off to them.
01:38
If I'll turn around, go back, gear patrol is right behind me and 17's behind them, so I'll go back and take care of that medical.
01:45
Okay, that'd be greatly appreciated. Uh,
01:49
attend the county on Med2.
01:52
If you want, you still dispatch 20... 26 for a truck,
01:56
just because one of their oxygen things are going to be a little bit better finished than the QRS.
02:00
Do you know if anybody is around for 26 because we have them unattended?
02:05
Well if they're unattended then there's probably not any way around so you can disregard for now.
02:11
Okay then I copy Patrol 164 is going to head that way.
02:15
Affirmative.
02:17
Okay.
