Found him, Joe.
00:02
We're in the bad spot because he's right in the middle of the ramp if you can flip around.
00:06
I'll put it on us.
00:13
Seven jill and two of one.
00:14
Where are they at?
00:20
Anyone southbound to 670 west.
00:24
The car's right in the middle of the ramp.
00:26
Can you check with CFD again? It looks like it's empty.
00:29
Yep. Standby.
00:31
Sorry,
00:32
I'm going to have to flip it.
00:33
Let her go and take me a minute.
00:36
Seven, Joel, I'll head up there.
00:37
Do I need to get on an 11th and come down or can I get on a 5th?
00:42
It'll work.
00:44
It'll work.
00:46
The car's empty.
00:47
It's no rush.
00:53
This is a silver sedan.
00:55
My chance is this an old one, because there was some flares up here.
01:03
S. Heaven, fire doesn't have anything out there, so he's saying he couldn't find anything where they transferred already.
01:13
Didn't went out there with S7 have a tag that I could possibly look up and see if we had a previous run involving that tag.
01:21
Yeah, so just be here a second, I'll get it.
01:28
And just whoever's next,
01:30
in this lane,
01:31
just park high up on the hill before the corner,
01:36
and then it'll be safe enough for me to approach.
01:39
I'll get the tag and do the impound slip.
01:41
You can just stay up there.
01:44
Go back to egg, Sarge.
01:47
Hey, Joe.
01:49
I should, I'm flipping on fifth here, I should be there in a sec.
01:53
What was the last part you said?
02:01
Like you know how it's a curve over this bridge, if you're high up there on the slow lane and start slowing it down, I just don't want to be up by that car and it's right on the bridge and somebody flip into me while I'm just trying to do paper.
02:16
But I'll handle it as long as you slow this traffic down up there.
02:22
Yeah, no problem.
02:23
Kirk and I should be pulling up momentarily.
02:25
You said you're on the right side.
02:28
Hey, friend, slowly.
02:33
How far down from the split are you, Sarge?
02:40
As soon as it's spoofing starts to curve the bridge, so not far at all.
02:47
Okay.
02:53
7.0.
02:54
Good.
02:57
I'm clear. I'm good.
02:58
I'm good at some of my 17-9.
02:59
I'll take care.
03:03
I'm happy.
03:09
Joe, I'm gonna want to back chair.
03:13
I'm happy.
03:15
Joe, you back here?
03:22
Yeah, I'm in place here right about the split.
03:30
No, I saw you.
03:32
Uh, you ready? King, Ocean, Zebra,
03:36
7467.
03:42
Let me start to slip, just give it to you.
03:51
No, I'll do the flip, but you can start the hook.
03:57
Okay, I'll call one.
04:04
My 7 are you still back here?
04:08
Yes.
04:13
Hey, I tried looking at that tag and I don't have it involved in anything.
04:22
That makes sense.
04:23
Somebody drove by and probably thought somebody was in here, but he just crashed and left.
04:28
We'll get it off the road.
04:31
I copy.
