10-4[1]. We can't keep up. 10-4. They went westbound. Last thing on, westbound. Northbound. All right. We're saying westbound or northbound. Go north on that street. The SUV. All right, so a dark color SUV went northbound. That's northbound from Marquette and Kedvale, but no place on it, right? We didn't get a place. 10-4. 20. It's 814, okay? 1-4. You good? 14, we're fine. 10-4. He's fine side. It's like a small caliber weapon. Use caution nights. All right, were they shooting at you guys or were they shooting the tow truck? What happened? We were firing upon the tow truck. There was a tow truck here that took off westbound. It was black. I didn't see the license plate. They had a cab on the credit. 10 for us. 63rd in Kedvale. The vehicle hit another vehicle, fled northbound on Kedvale. All right, the vehicle hit another vehicle on 63rd in Kedvale and then fled northbound from the location. 821 was a tow truck. They went northbound on Kedvale from 63rd Street. One was the white SUV as well. not a dark color SUV it's white 2-1 821 821 725 It was a dark color vehicle, so you're saying it's white and fled northbound on Kedvale from 63rd. 25. 25, go ahead. Okay, so I just have an old paper. 10-4. And A14, is this all from that auto accident or this is something completely separate? This was separate. So there was a tow truck here just showing and another vehicle went and opened fire on them. 10 4. What's the actual description? All right, so can anybody confirm the offending vehicle? What color is that offending vehicle? We're hearing black and then we're hearing white. 14 lost sight of these vehicles, and nobody was behind them then. A14, you were never behind the vehicle, right? You lost that, correct? Negative score. We were on foot talking with the traffic crash of people. 10-4. 20, you copied? They lost sight of them. All right, so 4-2 is on a traffic crash, and these were shooting at each other right by them. The traffic crash was unrelated on Marquette, and then the vehicles fled on Kedvale from there. 10-4 northbound. And nobody was hit down there, everyone's good that they had crashed with 14. 10-4. All right, can you give me a paper card over here on 6013 for the accident? 10 4. 821. 21. All right, can you take the one at 6.3 in Kevale, the auto accident there? That would. Thank you. 820, I got a plate on unit 2 here as well. I'm ready. Drink David 91156. Frank David, 91156. Should be on a silver forward fusion. Tell four. What's the color of the funding vehicle? Is it white with no plate? All right. Can we go ahead and confirm the color of the offending vehicle? Was it black or was it white? The witnesses on C here on 63rd say it was a light-colored one, but they're highly on rate right now, so I don't know. 7-0-2, Sam. 7-4-20. All right, so now we're looking at a light color of Vegas goal. 702, Sam, go ahead. Yeah, regarding that tow truck. At 60th and Keeler, about three minutes ago, there's a silver full-sized truck with a tow truck hitch going westbound. just after that unit called it out. 10-4. Did you happen to catch what the offending vehicle might have been? I'm just relaying a suspect vehicle that was called out. So it's either white or silver, full-sized truck with its tow hitch, going westbound of 60th, and either three minutes ago now. 10 4. That sounds like it's probably our tow truck. So it was last seen going westbound from 63 in Keeler, silver tow truck with a hitch. 8-11. 8-11. Good morning. I just have a commercial alarm for you on a beat, 5501, South Harlem at the Aldi. They're getting motion at the roof patch. Morning, squad, time forward. 835. 3.5. 3.5. Good morning. I got a couple calls for you. One is just a parker on Whipple Street, and then the other is a check-the-well-being at 79 in Western. I came over from CPA. Looks like there was a male wearing a white tank who was standing in front of the bus refusing with the driver leaves. It came in a little bit ago, so I'm not sure if they're still there. 10 4. Good morning. Morning. 825, you're up and rolling? 825. So I have some really old jobs for you. So the oldest one is to check the well-being at 6241 South Palman. It looks like a 15-year-old called in. So there was a dispute with the mom. They were yelling with the grandmother, the child was screaming in the background, no drinking or drugs. And then also there's a really old theft that occurred at 6414 Southwestern's a family dollar. But I'm not sure if they're still open or not. A female was in the store shoplifting. Okay. Good morning. Hey, 20. Yeah, there was another witness on scene that did say it was the black SUV that struck the other vehicle at 63rd Street. It should have extensive damage on it so. 10 4. If we got any officers in the area, how your friend of vehicle is going to be a black SUV, it struck another vehicle so it should have extensive damage on it. A citizen at 62 in Keilers stated that it was a black rammer that was shooting through. All right, so that the funding vehicle fled north from 62 in Keiler. They're thinking that's saying that's a black rammer per citizen on me. The 814, you're good, correct?
