02:20
240 boy, you got walked on.
02:21
If you can go again.
02:23
The truck can be just to the left of the shiny silver semi-truck.

02:30
Copy in the traffic, just to the left of the shiny silver semi, two for cover.
02:36
345, boy, I'm about a mile ahead of you guys in the traffic game.
02:38
If you guys need to get in a position somewhere, maybe we're in a bottleneck to set up and stick for me now.
02:45
I don't think we're going to be able to stick this with all this traffic and I'm not comfortable trying to pin.
02:50
I don't want to play in bumper cars with all these citizens.
02:55
200 Adam.
02:57
200 Adam or 300 Adam are you on this channel?
03:01
300 Adam on here.
03:04
Just confirming no stick, no clock proffler this time?
03:09
No grappler right now.
03:10
I'm working on sticks.
03:11
We'll advise on that, but no for right now.
03:15
Probably no sticks, no grappler at this time.
03:17
2143.
03:19
240 Boy, can you confirm if this is an F-150 or a ranger to be drafting?
03:24
It looks to be an F-150, it's completely spray painted, it has trash and bicycles, and the bed of the truck.
03:32
It should be parallel to a semi that has yellow bulb lights along the entire top and rear of the semi.
03:43
243.
03:48
2404.00.
03:49
Good.
03:53
Based off of what you're seeing, can we set sticks safely or is it going to be too many cars?
03:59
We're a popper to popper right now.
04:01
No sticks are going to be able to safely be thrown out, and if somebody tries to get in front of him, I don't want him getting hit.
04:08
Okay, got there.
04:11
Brough Unit State 1 Charlie 3 is coming to this channel with the grappler.
04:16
Listen up, we can get the eye again and hopefully grapple it before it gets out of coming.
04:19
Do we know where the state grapplers coming from?
04:23
He's passing the 1-8-1 right now.
04:27
Copy, I think we have enough use the cars that we can probably let them in to this number 1 lane.
04:36
I think we have enough patrol cars on the number 1 lane.
04:40
We can probably guide them into that wallow and probably get a good grapple.
04:45
244 boy for 240.
04:48
My ABL will be on top of the CSP Grappler.
04:52
I'm Douglas County, 1 Charlie 3, CSP on Blue Southeast.
04:58
One Charlie 3.
05:04
I'm coming, I'm actually coming up on the left shoulder.
05:08
Can I get a description of the vehicle?
05:12
A spray-painted black truck looks to be an F-150 bikes, bicycles, and trash in the back looks like a trash bin on the driver's side.
05:21
It appears to be occupied one-time window also looks to be spray-painted or have a spray splattered around it on the rear window.
05:29
All right, coming up on the left lane, but I think the left shawl closed off for construction.
05:39
Yeah,
05:40
so I am passing the express lane Larkspur monument sign for the toll road right now.
05:49
He should be about four cars ahead of me in number one lane.
05:54
Okay, just confirm you're passing the Larkspur.
05:57
The express lane toll sign that goes over the highway,
06:03
we're going under that sign right now.
06:06
Okay, I'm going to see if I can get around this, I'm going to.
06:12
If not, no worries, we'll wait for it to loosen up and then we can get a better grapple on it.
06:19
And one Charlie three.
06:21
Have our PD advised, they thought they had enough room for you to take the number one lane.
06:26
Okay.
06:28
One Charlie three, did you copy? My last traffic.
06:33
I'm in the number one lane now.
06:35
I'm just sitting by in the semi.
06:39
Whoever the state grappler is, I think you've got plenty of room on his shoulder to start getting around us.
06:45
I think you're a ways behind us still.
06:47
You haven't passed me.
06:50
Alright, yeah, once I get past these signs, I think I can use the shoulder again.
06:57
244, do we tell the Denver unit on who's tracking at StarCase or is one of our guys tracking it?
07:04
It was Denver tracking and they were possibly going to lose radio service.
07:10
Okay.
07:13
Denver dispatch, do we have a Denver sergeant on this?
07:17
Yeah, 570. I'm on this.
07:20
Sarge, you have it.
07:24
(number withheld).
07:26
Clear that's what I do.
07:29
And for that Denver Sergeant, are you guys still tracking on StarCase?
07:33
Favor.
