Transcript:
We have a traffic jam with about six or seven tour buses picking up the university band. It will be hard to get back here. The subject is conscious and alert with a possible leg injury, possibly dislocated. We are coming down the road near the Justice Building. Are we on the correct road? No, ma'am. The quickest way is to exit to one of the main streets, either Cecil, Fayetteville, or Austin, then come down to Lawson Street and you can get on to Campus Drive from Lawson Street. It will be a little hard getting here. I will try to clear the buses so you can get back here.
