1440. Double seven canton. 577 is going to stay here with this one.
00:04
The suspect is in critical condition.
00:07
And I'm going to be headed north for the other 31.
00:11
Okay, standby on that. I might have around 10. I think she's off a Ridgewood at the circle, okay?
00:20
This is the one that's requesting EMS[1] at the 140.
00:26
Negative, that's going to be unrelated then.
00:32
So I will mean out to that then.
00:36
Okay.
00:39
Apparently it was one of the 31s the driver got into.
00:45
Okay, I have another caller at the Circle Cam Ridgewood advising. She was also struck up in the strong cell area.
00:52
Yeah,
00:55
this is definitely not that.
00:57
Okay.
01:03
They have OSPN route, but I'll be out here for bids. We have anything good.
01:08
Do you have anything?
01:10
Okay.
01:12
Do you have any calls for me?
01:16
Negative.
01:21
How about 273?
01:27
273.
01:28
I'll be clear from this crash up railband service.
01:32
14.3.
01:38
If her 31 occurred in Strongville, do you want me to refer or are we going to be handling things?
01:49
I don't know.
01:51
It's totally possible that if Brojew Heights started this pursuit in their area, it did not happen in Strongville whatsoever, and it happened in Brodview Heights area on 77.
02:03
or seemed unsure of where she actually was.
02:06
She didn't say it was a Ford Explorer that struck her, and there were multiple police vehicles in pursuit of it.
02:14
Okay, I find it more likely she was in the Brecksville/Broadview Heights.
02:20
Right.
02:26
I suspect again.
02:28
Go ahead.
02:30
Regardless to jurisdiction here, we should not be handling any of these 31s that stemmed from drug use incidents.
02:40
Okay.
02:42
Do you want me to refer her back to Brexville then?
02:48
Negative. We'll stand by for now, throwing triple seven checks for injuries and whatnot,
02:54
but don't have a unit out there.
02:57
Okay. Okay. Okay.
03:03
I'm still on scene with them here, so I'll advise with triple seven, lets me know what they've got.
03:08
Oh, okay.
03:12
577, it looks like Brexel already has the unit with them.
03:15
It looks like it's a two car.
03:16
Triple seven can't. Could you contact Richfield PD and see why they've got the roadblock?
03:24
Okay.
03:29
Turning around at Wheatley, they've got 77 cells still completely blockaded right there.
03:36
Okay.
03:42
Do you have closed still or is everything cleared up to where they can move traffic through?
03:50
It's cleared up, they can move traffic.
03:56
The crash, more serious crash down at the Ghent Road exit is completely on the off-ramp area and not the main line.
04:11
And I'm out here.
04:19
You could actually ask Richfield to come down this way for traffic control.
04:24
That would be great.
04:25
Even just one unit would be highly beneficial.
04:29
And it's copy that's out here.
