I'm still downtown. If a car is going up to the accident, you can pull me off of it and I'll head that way. Having car to assist. 345 GP. 345. Case made it, and I can head towards that as well. Copy in both cars, the suspicious weapon, southeast, the veil. It's going to be on the corner here. There's two 12-year-old (name withheld) males on dirt bikes. One of them in a lime green shirt, has a handgun in his waistband. Papa, three-tax two-way closure until 1700. Just to get time for the paint to dry a little more. I'll let you know when it's open. Copy that. I appreciate the update. Three or four.
