(number withheld) here, how can I help you? We have a stalled vehicle on the eastbound Mound Boulevard, some kind of pickup truck.

I think it's a Chevy or Ford.

I didn't quite get the make and model.
00:19
He's at an angle in the left eastbound lane.

Cars are having to go around. There’s a detour for westbound 65, so it might make things difficult.

Okay, I apologize.

What location is this? You said Mound and Third Street?

He is blocking one of the lanes.

I know you're going east on Mound.

The right lane's already blocked because of the bridge being out and the barriers over there, but he's definitely affecting traffic.
00:54
He's kind of at a weird angle.
00:56
Nothing serious, but I assume he's calling for a tow or something like that.

It's probably going to cause a traffic jam.

One of the tow trucks reported an older male in the driver’s seat.

It looks like his truck had a mechanical issue.

All right, we'll see if we can get anyone out there.
