I just transferred a call over to state, but I guess there's wet asphalt all over 23 from Dollar General to the south.
00:14
Sure.
00:19
I did transfer it over to state patrol, but just want to see how bad it is.
00:28
1599,
00:29
put the medical and Tracy if anything urgent.
00:38
Maintenance worker called and stated that an elderly male had fallen and he can't get back up.
00:49
Thank you.
00:53
231, my county.
00:54
I copy, I'll head that way.
00:57
Okay.
01:04
On the roadway, he did pull over.
01:12
122, Highway 23 North, the Marshall line, clear my stop.
01:24
Control to Marshall, do you copy? Marshall, do you copy?
01:28
Marshall, go ahead.
01:32
Highway 23, you're on the south side of Cottonwood.
01:34
Had a semi that was hauling tar.
01:39
It sounds like they lost the tar, Pebble size debris in the roadway.
01:43
They are pulled over on the shoulder now.
01:48
It'll be just a bit, but we will get some trucks that way.
01:56
I
02:01
notify state patrol.
02:02
It is ground up asphalt, and it looks like a semi lost its whole load from just north of Cottonwood all the way to the like East Fourth Street area.
02:14
Yep, they're aware of it.
02:15
They're just letting DOT know.
02:17
I just wanted to know how bad it was.
02:25
Yeah.
02:30
I'm
02:32
assuming they're, but DOT needs to be made aware of it.
02:35
It's like it's a pretty significant spill.
02:37
They need some cleanup.
02:40
Topper, they were advised.
02:41
They advised it would be a slight delay though.
