Loose buffalo creates road hazard near Sisseton
Heard on:
Codington County Public Safety
04:03
00:00
Do you guys have the information on the buffalo that you guys were trying to locate earlier today?
00:08
I just saw one on the road on 121st and Whipple and it took off east into a tree line.
00:19
That's what we'll give one of our units a call.
00:26
10-4. Battery 20%.
00:32
One X, something.
00:34
What's 20?
00:37
Gonna be Whipple between Eastman and 141st.
00:42
It was right in the middle of the road and then took off when I honked at
00:48
it.Looked to be a smaller sized buffalo.
00:52
But I cannot find it in the fields to the east where it had taken off to.
01:00
Ten four. I believe there was three muzzle out.
01:04
I don't know if they're located.
01:05
Two.
01:09
Ten four. Yeah, I only see the one.
01:12
It looked fairly small.
01:15
But there could have been others by it.
01:19
I'm not sure.
01:26
I'll come south
01:29
455.
01:36
Did you guys get the information where they would have gotten loose from?
01:41
If it was on Whipple or if it was somewhere else?
01:50
So the buffalo version that came up from Troy Road at the hot OTB, they left the gate open up there.
01:59
Two buffalo got out this morning and they made their way down to Two Star and Old Eighty One.
02:09
That was probably about 04:00 this evening when that call came out.
02:15
They had a drone up looking for it.
02:19
10-4, I'm gonna see him.
02:21
This is gonna be probably the same one involved in that group because it's the one on Lawrence, the only one that I can think that's in the general area that would be able to make it this far east.
02:39
10-4, yeah.
02:40
They could have came further north through the pasture too.
02:48
10-4.
02:55
Buffalo, okay.
02:57
Signal contact to GSP unit.
03:01
Still there at location.
03:02
They're Buffalo.
03:04
It's not far this evening.
03:06
Notified in our four, he advised they got two of them and they couldn't get that 3rd one.
03:12
I believe that's that one they ran to that tree line.
03:18
And four,
03:24
did he say he's gonna send anybody out?
03:32
Not sure. I advised him that he wanted one of them out.
03:40
10-4.
03:42
I was just going to need someone heading up Buffalo.
03:50
17-1X. Yeah, that's my worry because it was right in the middle of the roadway, not paying attention until it heard me honk and it ran off.
03:58
So somebody probably would have hit it if it was still on the road.
