Transcript:
A report from a third-party caller that said there was a male crossing Seminole Trail with Hilton Heights headed towards the Speedway. Had a sword on his hip, not brandishing it, just simply had it on his hip. Once the area checked, because they found it suspicious, does not want to be contacted. Do you want me to send somebody through, or is it okay to cancel this? I'm not too far away. I'll take care of it. He was described as a (name withheld) male with a green jacket and a low ponytail.
