00:08
9918. 9918.
00:11
I...
00:16
I see he's slowing down.
00:20
Pulling off to the right.
00:21
Pulling off to the right.
00:28
Speeds right now,
00:31
no traffic.
00:35
The distance is high.
00:40
With the 1080, the speeds are pretty reasonable right now, or do you want us to just continue and you follow it? Also, it's all like, do you got anything like two versus spice?
00:51
This is Highway 613, I'm on 201, about mile marker near 1 and a half, and set up spikes right now.
00:59
Be advised, for lane number 2 right now, he shut off his flight and turn it back on, so he could come the darkout.
01:07
At 335, we're still less known 201.
01:26
Sorry, Elsie, I didn't hear you, did you say you wanted to pull off, you were going to follow him?
01:33
Yeah, I think if he's going to the county line, though, he might just leave him alone.
01:40
He's going to hop the median.
01:48
5-2, we're eastbound now, 201,
01:52
DETAW, we have clear visual, speeds are 80.
01:58
On 201, speeds 80, darked out.
02:02
His lights are back on, he's slow down speed's about 70.
02:07
Josh, if he gives you another opportunity,
02:10
push him.
02:16
Do we want to have a plan if you're going to cold follow them and you'll still stay at 5 feet? We want to re-engage or just leave a B?
02:28
If we just turn off and I'll just see if I can follow them, see if we can get spikes in front of us.
02:34
If you just send 15 in the mall, you send it out on the POMPONX.
02:40
Here's just a plot right and fine.
02:41
I'll let's know if I can anything different.
02:46
All in front of you at this room.
02:50
If uh,
02:52
you'll be described on this, here,
02:55
but I could each other, it's not pretty fine, please.
03:03
Holly, make sure we'll be down, I know, those are heads towards them.
03:11
5-2, still eastbound approaching,
03:14
just past near 9200 West,
03:17
feet on 100 to 10th traffic,
03:22
light yielding, conditions dry.
03:28
Current units are trying to cut you off of banging her.
03:35
I think it's 84, watching what he does.
03:45
Thank you. Thank you for you.
03:47
Thank you for you.
03:48
In addition to pure coverage.
03:52
Sorry, say that again.
03:59
But he's driving, make sure you have good cover before he goes like now.
04:04
Yeah, he's driving a dirty ride it.
04:08
He did hit a PD vehicle earlier today.
04:15
Still westbound, approaching near 7200 West.
04:19
I'm trying to catch up.
04:20
I'm at 120, he's probably a blue suit.
04:22
Uh,
04:26
he just collided into a civilian car, the minor collision near mile marker 72, the white Tia, there are no injuries.
04:36
39.
04:38
339.
04:44
So I'll be germinating about a mile from mountain years.
04:49
See,
04:54
CURNs is about the same to try to get spikes or not.
05:00
Yeah, please can drive spike and we'll spike them.
05:06
Anybody have the eye because West Valley has multiple exit from 201 for spikes?
05:13
I'm down to speed like this now.
05:16
The past video is going to continue to go into a L.
05:25
And at this point he took about three-quarters of mile to a mile ahead of me.
05:29
And I asked with him.
05:32
It buys heavy front and damage as well.
05:40
If nobody is going to be following, I don't know if we're going to be able to tell which people would spike it.
05:50
Yeah,
05:52
he did be slowed down, it's very really when I should go down,
05:55
so it'll be hard to tell that way, too.
06:01
Josh, is that still him up there ahead of us?
06:05
I have no idea.
06:07
I'm sure.
06:12
I don't know for sure but it looked like you went over the number of more line
06:25
and you know I'm going on ahead of you?
06:33
We're just yielded over the side of you.
06:39
Just can get off.
06:44
Who's employee,
06:45
Austin.
06:50
That's day he passed near 3200.
06:55
Yeah, from...
07:08
Okay, he's giving up.
