00:28
We noticed a white truck right after the...
00:32
I contained this back into a phone pole.
00:34
Seems like the phone pole is a little compromise now from it.
00:36
I got a phone poll number for you when you're ready.
00:38
I'm ready, sir.

605, so many mark for me.
01:14
633, I was just skating that 71 southbound to 70 eastbound to 0.
01:21
Okay, we've got traffic moving eastbound out, correct?
01:23
Not from the 71 split, I don't know east of us who's moving where, but we've got cones probably a good four in a mile or so.
01:32
Okay, um,
01:33
somebody's open up their ramps thing.
01:34
Columbus Fire[1], a medic pop-up.
01:35
I'm responding.
01:36
551 route. I think they opened up south to east.
01:38
That's probably where you're doing all your traffic from.
01:40
Number five ladder 23.
01:41
Is there power out in the area?
01:42
22 is on scene.
01:43
It's like we have three vehicles to be investigating.
01:44
Oh, okay.
01:45
We've got one of the main lines coming through though.
01:49
605 to all the ramps, so if we've got steady traffic going eastbound out, I'd open them up your ramps.
01:53
No, sir, it doesn't seem to have disturbed the actual power service, but the pole itself, the guy hit, looks like it's damaged.
02:01
I think the AP should come on and take a look at the pole itself.
