403 officer, I got an odor of gas.
00:02
You got anything in the rear of that?
00:10
454, you're gonna have to transmit on another radio.
00:13
You're not coming across.
00:20
Okay, is the gas coming from yours or do you just have an odor?
00:28
All right, take your gas meter in later.
00:37
Ogle County Glacier Drive, come in.
00:41
This is a drive to animal.
00:43
Go ahead.
00:46
Ogle, it's possibly two houses struck by lightning in this neighborhood.
00:51
I also have a strong odor of natural gas.
00:54
Start Nicor to the scene, please.
00:58
Match the possible two houses struck by lightning.
01:01
Strong smell of natural gas.
01:02
I'll start night court.
01:16
All Byron units, I have the leak about three, four lots to the south, blown out of the ground on this day.
01:32
I want the engine to reload.
01:35
Down the window of this thing,
01:38
I want a line on the ground and we'll go from there.
01:42
I don't believe we have the actual damage assessment, so that's going to be secondary.
01:48
We
01:49
need to get some of the gas to figure.
01:52
10-4.
02:06
Ogle County Fire and 494.
02:12
94, Ogle.
02:16
We'll go to the lot north of (number withheld) Glacier Drive.
02:20
I have, it's an empty lot.
02:23
I have a large gas main blowing off.
02:27
We're gonna need Nicor to expedite.
02:33
Message received.
02:34
Empty lot at (number withheld) Glacier Drive as a gas main is blown off.
02:40
Can you advise, can you hear gas escaping? They had asked when I had called.
02:47
That house immediately north of me,
02:52
I believe, wherever the members are, they're walking this way.
02:55
I need those neighbors notified and I need the residents meters.
03:06
Okay, yeah, let's have 454 just where they're at.
03:09
They can just shut the street down that far off.
03:18
The leak is going to be right to your right where that billboard sign is.
03:22
I need you.
03:25
Probably right by the
03:29
driveway, just in front of you on your right hand side.
03:38
403 officer from.
03:44
Did you see where that's going on it?
03:53
Yeah, I agree.
03:54
I'm just worried about that lighting off for some reason, especially with the lightning in the air.
03:59
So we're just going to babysit it with a line and wait for night court.
