Police manage large crowd on Highland Road
Heard on:
Baton Rouge LA Law Dispatch
04:18
00:00
I pushed them south on Highland, but they're coming back from Union, going back north on Highland.
00:08
(name withheld), y'all need some more help on that on y'all's side?
00:12
Yeah, just come up behind there.
00:16
(name withheld), where you at?
00:18
Oh, (name withheld), that's that.
00:22
Hello, mother, top of the unit, roll for the north.
00:25
Four five on the left
00:34
side, left lane.
00:37
EBR Lafayette, EBR PD (name withheld).
00:41
We're Lafayette over the back.
00:44
You know, calling that.
00:46
EBR Lafayette, advise Lieutenant (name withheld) if we need to reallocate this personnel we had from EBR to the city side to get my hand, but they're more willing to do so.
00:59
10-4, y'all can start walking your way or working your way down Aster Street towards Highland and kind of just keep that crowd moving.
01:07
That would help.
01:10
Yeah, well, we got a pretty good, pretty good bit of people.
01:14
So y'all split up when you get to aster, right there where it breaks off, and one half go towards Island, another half go towards
01:25
New Orleans. You want us to leave these units by the fire and get on foot, or stay in the units?
01:32
Just use your judgment. If you're going to be out on foot, be with somebody else.
01:36
And four.
01:38
Do we have anybody at State Street and Downriver?
01:44
No, we do not.
01:46
Do we need to send somebody down there?
01:49
If we can cut that off and block it, then we won't have any more traffic coming in through State Street in the middle of this.
01:56
So we need to send somebody out there to block it.
02:00
We can take it towards town.
02:02
I'll help you get it out of here if you want to send it our way.
02:08
They're coming in that direction.
02:11
You saying we can
02:13
send it south on Highland and y'all can handle that and keep it flowing?
02:17
Yeah, we got nothing down here, so they're making a right off of State on Highland.
02:22
You can send them left and we can push them towards Highland.
02:25
10-4, you copy that? It's State and Highland.
02:29
(name withheld)
02:32
(name withheld), you copy? We're going to push, start pushing traffic south on Highland from State Street.
02:38
Hey, I got a fireman that needs to come north on Highland from Aster.
02:44
EBR unit 694.
02:47
Now keep pushing south on Highland, but they keep turning around and going back towards off.
02:57
(name withheld) to those units, we're going to send somebody to State and Dow.
03:01
We're going to cut that traffic.
03:03
What do you need, (name withheld)?
03:06
(name withheld) is going to send somebody to State and Island or State and Dow.
03:10
We're going to cut that off.
03:13
Got
03:15
too many units in the roadway to try to send traffic south from State.
03:20
All right, I'll let you do again.
03:21
You send them south and they turn around and go right back to you.
03:32
Can we get boaters to come up and push?
03:36
Mobile field force, single file in the median.
03:40
Do you start?
03:43
Very well, sir.
03:46
Get boaters to push them out on the sidewalk.
03:48
Keep them moving.
03:51
I'll have to pull up, give us some room.
03:54
Chief in the unit, ask me for motors.
03:56
What's your 20 ? I'm on Highland, come up to Roosevelt.
04:05
10-4.
04:09
PVR Raleigh to command post.
04:11
You need additional deputies somewhere else?
04:15
I'm at Holmes at South Stadium right now.
