Transcript:

I was calling because I'm pulling up to the Mall of America right now and they had a call in for the officers for the smokers.
00:06
But I'm pretty sure all of them are about to get off.
00:09
But I do still have the customer that's in the back of the floor.
00:13
He's all the way on the floor now laid out in the back,
00:17
like leaned up against the seat.
00:20
Okay, so he's on the floor leaning against the seats?
00:25
Correct. So I'm not sure if he's okay or not.
00:29
Okay, I'll update the call.
00:31
Yeah,
00:34
I'll update calls that he's sitting on the floor.
00:36
Is he breathing and everything though?
00:39
Yeah, it looks like he's breathing.
00:41
Okay.
00:43
Yeah, if you could ask him to get up and actually sit on the seat otherwise.
00:47
All of our mall squads left for the day, and it would probably take a minute to get from downtown to where you're at.
00:55
I don't know.
00:56
I just wanted to not hold you up too long.
00:58
But if you could get them up and onto the seat, that'd be great.
01:01
And we can continue, and we'll catch up with you in media.
01:04
Otherwise, we're going to have to hold and do the whole thing—send officers down there.
01:10
Okay, let me try my hardest to go get him up because he got on the bus by himself.
01:14
Nobody else was with him.
01:16
So I'll try, and if I can't get them up, I'll give you a call back.
01:21
Sounds good, thank you.
01:22
Thank you, (number withheld) is clear.
01:25
I just said driver (number withheld).
01:28
Yeah, the guy that's on the ground, he will not get up.
01:33
Okay,
01:34
Unfortunately we can't drive the bus with people on the ground, so just hold tight and I'll start police and medics.
01:42
Thank you. Will do.
01:43
Thank you so much.
01:44
(number withheld) is clear.
01:46
One last thing, is he responsive? Like does he at least look at you or try to answer you, or is he just unresponsive?
01:55
Yeah, he tried to move his head and look at me a little, but then he kind of went back out of it.
02:05
Copy. All right, I will update the call and start medics.
02:08
And then also the smokers that were on here, they got off and then now they got back on as well.
02:16
Two of them.
