I have a perimeter set up and F-O-Mianaps for assistance.
00:04
We've already asked them.
00:08
All right, I'll take one.
00:10
I'll take one.
00:20
Lauren on two, can you shine your light just directly behind you on the vehicle in front of the gold SUV?
00:32
So,
00:34
unless you feel differently, I'd at least keep them for the sake of accident investigation.
00:39
I don't think that this is going to be involved with the weapons one.
00:48
Talk about.
00:58
So we do the squad that checked underneath the Louis Street Bridge.
01:04
So on that I can go ahead.
01:10
Do you think it's worthwhile to get that drone down there and just run it underneath the bridge?
01:24
4800, 35th and 7th.
01:28
Trooper 9, I got one acting very suspicious backyard of (number withheld) 3rd Avenue.
01:39
Clementine are the keys still with that Honda?
01:44
Negative.
01:49
6-4. I'm coming to the area at 2.9. You got somebody with your prayer track.
01:55
A firm, but I'll need one more at the cars to watch it.
01:59
I'll post up at the car.
02:04
Can you also see about a consent to check them for the keys to this vehicle?
02:10
Yeah,
02:13
I got to get on language lines.
02:15
The one's got marks on its next, so I'm assuming they're related.
02:21
Copy.
02:28
Contact with one.
02:32
All right, one ran to the backyard, (number withheld)3rd backyard.
02:39
And the sidewalk might be related.
02:47
Join guys about five minutes off.
02:50
Okay, we shut down cell phone traffic on 101 for the dog. We got a bunch of cars coming this way. You can shut it down to the roundabout.
03:00
Copy. Shut down something on 101.
03:06
Thank you. Good idea.
03:09
The first one in, if you could help with traffic and the second one or the drone operator, if you could link up with our squads.
03:19
There's going to be a small entrance to a boat ramp when you're coming south on the bridge. It'll be on your left-hand side. There'll be two squads down there if you can link up with them and we can just run the drone underneath there.
03:35
Copy Heading Prairie 111 will shut down southbound traffic.
03:39
The scene will be at 181.
03:41
He'll assist with that.
03:44
And then our third guy drone is about five minutes out. He'll come there too.
03:50
All right, thank you.
03:58
We'll go.
04:03
Jack's gonna shock me on the meantime. When we have two of us, what would you like us to do or do you need us?
04:15
I don't think we'll need you right now.
04:19
At this point it doesn't look like this crashed vehicle is going to be related to our gun pointing incident.
04:27
So we're just going to be thorough and check underneath the bridge just to make sure there's nobody else injured.
04:35
Governor, I'll hang tight in case you need more people. Thank you.
04:40
Thank you. Okay.
04:46
Okay. So these are the two that ran north. There should be one that ran south.
04:54
Copy. I will look to the south now.
04:59
Are we looking at the perimeter of the south? We just shift anybody down there?
05:06
No what?
05:14
110 under the bridge.
05:18
Copy, 282-305.
05:23
All swathes clear.
05:31
Copy, swads are clear at 121.
05:36
I can't remember if it's maybe Papa Murpies that might still be open over there.
05:40
I would just like to try to check for any surveillance of males with the weapon-related call, just so that we can confirm that the, uh,
05:50
they in fact went cell phone on Lewis.
05:55
Copy that.
05:59
Number 866 shot to be 280.
06:02
We have cell phone, 101, check out for you.
06:07
Copy. Thank you.
06:09
And then for everybody south of the bridge,
06:14
a canine and several officers are going northbound.
06:17
I apologize.
06:18
Everybody in the north end of the bridge, they are walking northbound, just trekking along the walking pass there.
06:27
I'll pass along here, everybody. Thank you.
06:37
Have these two vehicles been checked on the west side of the bridge and the parking lot?
06:48
Not to my knowledge.
06:53
Copy.
06:55
Hello.
06:59
Hello.
07:06
Um,
07:07
heavier set,
07:09
possibly Hispanic male, all blacks.
07:15
I think we got our two from the car. They were slimmer bills, two beats.
07:21
Copy. Um, myself and one of the troopers are out here with our mail. We entertained, but...
07:27
Okay.
07:29
Copy.
07:33
84029. I'm not sure what you saw, but I got a car here at the hometown church. I has three wheels taken off of it. It's checked up, pretty dainty.
07:42
So when I first got to the church, they were running from that car to their car, and they took off on me.
07:52
Forty an hour, it'll be at 38th and third.
07:55
38th and third.
07:58
Number nine, is the officer inquiring about the heavyset fellow?
08:04
Go ahead, number nine.
08:06
Did that person walk up to your squad?
08:12
Negative.
08:14
Copy this correct.
08:19
Okay.
08:22
I'm tracking what you guys are requesting just for the thorough search. Where do you guys want me to respond to?
08:33
So if you're coming in off the 1st Avenue, through like our downtown area, there's a boat launch just to the north of where the accident is, depending on which way you come in,
08:47
be on your right or left side.
08:49
And there's a couple of squads down there. If you just want to team up with them, and then just kind of run it around that area as you see fit.
08:58
Yeah, yeah. I'm coming in off 101 at the north of all.
09:04
Cover that, yeah, it'll be on your right-hand side, just a little past the accident.
