Hey (name withheld), so are they saying that they made contact with Metro Transit employee after they had that accident? Because when I arrived on scene, two of the three bus drivers were out of their bus trying to direct traffic.
00:12
It was all sorts of crazy.
00:14
So according to Minneapolis, the person that slid and hit the pole was,
00:21
uh,
00:23
they made contact with.
00:24
With one of our police and take the report for that accident.
00:29
and according to our officers, they were never out with the party.
00:36
I don't get it.
00:37
I don't, um, I guess I'm not understanding.
00:40
The person that they were trying to avoid the accident was one of our buses that got stuck near 44th and 49th in Osceola.
00:48
Hit a pole and he claimed that one of our officers were out with them to pick him up.
00:53
the report for the accident.
00:55
But then our officers were never there. Affirmative, our officers were never there.
01:00
The only Metro Transit employees—nobody showed up, it was just me.
01:04
And then the mechanics or the shop arrived later.
01:07
The only Metro Transit employees that were even there were operators who were out of their buses, who I shooed them right back into their buses when I got there for safety reasons.
01:18
And no PD ever responded, Minneapolis or Transit.
01:23
copy. Yeah, then that's what we were trying to figure out.
01:26
Did you make contact with anybody other than our buses at the scene? Maybe they mistaken you for one of our officers.
01:35
Maybe, but I didn't talk to anybody at all.
01:40
At all, I just dealt with the buses and that was it.
01:44
Copy. All right, thanks very much.
