00:39
Yeah, I guess it's not in our area.
00:42
We're having a tough time figuring out how to gain access, but it is out of our area, so I guess you'd have to start whosoever's area it is.

00:54
Go for engine 5.
00:55
I'm just coming in the area.

01:39
Engine 5-26, is it the property you're on or is it to the west of you?
01:43
So, it's slightly into the west west of us, but the property that we're on is just to the south of us.
01:48
So it would be the neighbor,
01:50
wherever Agent 5 is, it's the neighboring house to the south.
01:52
Yeah,
01:53
I'll go in the neighborhood and see if I can get their access.
