Dispatch, we'll be en route I 94 east and Minnesota mile marker 155 in Avon.

Can you back us up to en route, please?
00:08
Copy, I'll get back to you.
00:17
Squad two, medical at (number withheld) Arbor Street.
00:26
One back by St.
00:27
John's, even.
00:30
I'd say wherever we got the best line at site, I think if they're up on top of that curve on the hill and people can see it, I'd like for us to shut it down back there.
00:36
We'll try and get this control up here, see if we can get them flowing again.
00:39
But for now, let's shut it down.
00:42
Copy.
00:43
I'll have your engine pull into the right lane and I will assist with that.
00:47
We're slowing all traffic down.
00:51
Awesome, thank you. Let me know if we're going to need some help.
00:53
I'll call St. Joe for more trucks if we need it up there.
00:58
Copy.
01:01
We are responding to a call in Avon.
01:02
It's on Stearns 3.
01:09
Go ahead for Avon Fire and Stearns 3 if you're looking for me.
01:13
Male ambulance 100 and fifty-eight is on Stearns Street responding to the MVA at Avon.
01:19
We're about twenty-seven to 7 min out.
01:21
Let us know if there is any updates.
01:24
This is unit twelve to Chuck.
01:26
We got that right lane shut down right on the corner there.
01:32
Copy. We need to shut the entire road down at this point also.
01:35
As soon as you get traffic back up there a little bit, go ahead and take the whole road and shut it down so we don't get any more traffic through here.
01:46
Copy.
01:49
Jack State Patrol is going to push this car off the road so hopefully we can get it cleaned up and get it open.
01:57
Copy. Any ambulances from Avon Chief? At this point it seems like we just had minor injuries.
02:01
They still have my guys doing some patient assessment.
02:05
Sounds good.
02:06
I'm assuming you still want us in route.
02:11
Copy. We got some minor injuries.
02:12
I do have one girl in a car, the driver's seat.
02:15
She does have a cut to her toe, and she does have a history of seizures, so just as a precautionary, I'd like to have her.
02:23
Sounds good.
02:24
Thank you for the update. About 2424 out.
02:28
Copy. 24 minutes.
02:30
St. Joe PD to Avon Fire on Sterns Three.
02:36
Go ahead for Avon Fire, Sterns Three.
02:40
Just advising you've got two of our squads en route out there for lights as well.
02:46
Copy, appreciate it.
02:51
If you got a copy, 14's en route.
02:56
Copying at 14.
02:57
Why don't you go down towards the St.
02:59
John exit? Let's get this traffic slowed down.
03:02
We do have the road shut down at this point since we have a secondary accident.
03:05
So let's get this traffic slowed down the best we can.
03:15
It looks like traffic is slowed to a single lane into a stop almost to the St.
03:19
John's exit right now.
03:23
Copy, thank you.
03:29
Unit from unit 12, we have the freeway shut down here on the corner.
03:37
546 to other units, if we're back to St.
03:40
John's exit anyway, and we have the manpower, would it be possible to divert up off the exit?
03:47
If you can take those cars up off the exit, take them on the frontage road, would be the south side, west side, back to Avon, that would be great.
04:02
Can you send Frank 309 to booking?
04:14
711 to 46, you want us to block at St.
04:18
John's and divert at St.
04:19
John's?
04:22
Yes, please.
04:25
Copy that. I'm just getting on to 94 and 07's just ahead of me.
04:29
I'll try to let them know that.
