In 44 , I just got a call from a resident on Medfield down by the circle.
00:04
A tree fell on some power lines.
00:05
Probably the cause.
00:11
Okay, yeah, I am back at the intersection of Westway and Wagar.
00:13
The lights are back up and functioning as well.
00:16
I'll make this because of the man at the power.
00:20
I'll try to try to.
00:21
And for all, I'll see you here in a 2nd .
00:27
Once you guys confirm.

I'm pulling into Medfield now.
01:38
Can I have the numbers?
01:42
It was closer to the circle.
01:43
Two residents have called and they said they're stuck back there in the circle.
01:49
Yeah, that's affirmative.
01:50
It's on fire.
01:55
All right, I'll let the Westcom.

They're the ones that called me and told me it was, but I'll let them know that we have confirmation.

Yeah, I'm gonna steer clear.

At 45, all the lights are functioning.
02:11
We're good there.
02:12
And you got myself and 50 on scene.
02:17
Okay, 10-4.
02:18
West, I'm just asking, is it the pole that's on fire or their houses or anything that the fire spread to?
02:27
It looks like there's some brush, but it doesn't look like it's spreading yet, but it is pretty close to a shed.
02:39
We have that female with pain.

Can you see if Pharma wants her?
