Hey Chief 98,
00:20
we received one call for a pedestrian that was walking.
00:25
We're looking at rapid. It looks like he's on some kind of walking path near North Delmorr Avenue.
00:31
He's saying on one of the islands that's farther away from our side.
00:36
He can see someone standing on it.
00:38
Looks like it's starting to get covered in water.
00:42
Okay, it's trying to route.
00:46
We're calling Jersey now.
00:47
We did call the New Jersey State Police.
00:49
They don't think their boat can make it up that far, but they're going to start heading that way.
00:56
Yeah, usually State Police won't come that far unless they're trying to be able to get there.
01:01
All right, keep everything safe.
01:04
Rescue there.
01:06
Copy that, Chief 98.
01:08
I want to go to the lower track bridge, see if I can see anything from there.
01:12
Okay.

Have to respond back to the scene.
01:26
Okay.
01:28
Copy, cars out at the larger bridge.
01:32
All right, Chief, how you?
01:35
Good.
01:37
Male caller in front of (number withheld) Delmore Ave.
01:42
It's going to be a little island on the Jersey side.
01:44
There's a small campfire on it, but he denies seeing a person, just a campfire.
01:50
Okay.
01:53
Marine 98, this one.
01:55
Marine 98, okay, Chief 98.
01:58
Good.
02:00
All right, I just spoke to the caller.
02:01
He's no longer in the area, but he's saying it was near the dam and he said it's in front of a capital building.
02:11
Yeah, it's going to be on the Jersey side.
02:13
I think it'll probably be on the scene.
02:15
Okay.
02:18
Marine 0, Deputy 005.
02:22
Hey, Marine Zero.
02:25
Marine Zero, Chief Ninety Eight, you want us to go to our access area? You want us to come down there across from Waterworks?
02:31
Chief, if you can just come down to the Waterworks, we're just going to stage for the time being.
02:36
Copy that. I am going to relocate to the Chief Ninety Eight location.
02:42
Okay.
02:44
Rescue 98 with you.

It's going to be an island on the Jersey side.
02:58
There's a campfire that we can see from from our side, but no signs of anybody in distress.
03:03
Battalion 98 is going to take a ride over there.
03:06
We'll have a much better vantage point from the Jersey side to see if we have anything that dictates us launching the boats.
03:14
Copy.
03:16
Marine 98, state general, over.
03:17
