Hey, Nick, do you want me to stop this guy from leaving?
00:06
Yeah, unfortunately don't really have any authority to hold them, but if you want to kind of keep eyes on him, Lisa was in a hurry on her way back down, so she might be able to catch up with him if he's in close proximity at least.
00:19
He's made it to the top of the hill, and despite my instructions, he's taken off on the bike path towards, you know, parallel 70th to 21, over?
00:31
Yeah, I copy that.
00:33
She was in a hurry, so she might be just getting close to that intersection.
00:37
Hopefully she'll see him.
00:41
Well, I'm sure my less than cordial welcome to the park alerted him that he was in trouble.
00:50
Yeah, I copy that.
00:51
Enough of a shot across the bow, anyway.
00:53
So thanks for catching off with him and turning him around before he made it all the way up to the north end.
01:03
Lisa, I got the viker out here by the main entrance over.
01:07
She's going into the shopyard.
01:09
Yeah,
01:11
I'll see if I got her number in my phone.
01:14
Otherwise, we're just on our way back.
01:16
So if he's holding there, I will catch up with her at the shop and send her your direction.
