Copy that. Thank you. (Name withheld). I'm just got a call from a witness and I advise Washco as well. Said that the crash happened on the front of the road on Lake Elmo. So Engine 1 is in route you can clear Medic 5. Copy, Engine 1 in route clearing Medic 5. 1080 Blueville Bay Road, Cross Street, Legardo, and 156 for a lightning strike that occurred around 0,700. I'd be heard an explosion in the basement at that time. No, flames or smoke, colors unseen, at 1111. Dispatch, this is Lake Town 162. Can you put Engine 1 back on the call and let them decide if we're needed or not?
