Baker 1-14, can you divert for that suicide? Affirm. 6,700 block of Pacific Ave, not a confirmed location, it's just where the RP was. They were just screaming, saying that they wanted to get hit by a vehicle, states saying that one of their troopers who's not in uniform but is in their patrol vehicle is trying to get them out of the road and they're just refusing. We don't have any further. Copy, and you can see her way to last. 1738. Baker 114, do you have any ETA so we can let them know? Uh, five minutes? 1738. Maker 114, the troopers clearing says that he got out of the road but was still walking northbound on the sidewalk erratic. Copy. Just a few blocks out. 1739. Paul 306, you know 437 status? 12. Paul 306, 1740. Bigger 297, there's a new RP giving his name address, says that the male is trying to leave the apartment complex in a truck, and he just hit a tree in the parking lot. A white, older box truck, and it's David 17293A. Adam has blue flame logo on it. Also, they said he was intoxicated and he was making suicidal statements earlier today, now leaving Northbound on Pine. Copy. So, he's 17-41? 1-14. Baker 1-1-4? So the only description we have is unknown gender? That is correct. I'm still waiting on state to give us the description from the trooper.
