10-4[1]-2.
00:48
While I have you,
00:49
is the pole just broken or is it actually on the car or anything?

It's upright,
00:58
but it is shattered, and I don't know if the vehicle was assisting it remaining that way or not.

Command, just advising,
02:07
the MP is looking at about a one-hour ETA.

As soon as we're done with the EMS portion, we're going to be clearing the scene.

Also, CMP's ETA is approximately one hour.
02:45
I ask if they could make that a little snappier where we don't want to move the vehicle without the pole being looked at.

10-4[1]. After re-examination,
02:56
I'm fairly certain that if we try to pull it out, we'll damage the pole more.
