Transcript:
Central, this is caught county fire. I just got off the phone with Jefferson Caught County Gas. They are en route to you guys. Copy that. What's the promise of a mass evacuation at this time? Trying to get some residents out of these tiny homes. This is a very large leak down here. And copy, 1848. in front of the factory across the street. Yeah, it's going to be the first entrance to the tiny homes on the forest side, what they call the forest. Kill your engine right when you get off the highway. Go ahead, county car. Is there any deputies that can respond to units, if possible, to secure the entrance to this mobile home park? I'll stand by. I'll get somebody in row. So why don't you holler it? We have cars trying to come in. We don't have enough manpower to... officers and right here. Copy, thank you.
