Hey, 2525. 25. It looks like they have your vehicle on the Kennedy. I know. It looks like Car 5 (name withheld) put a stop on this vehicle, the guy admitted to stealing it. Approximately the Kennedy and Avondale. Wonderful. I think I have the victim approaching me right now. All right. I'll let them know. 854 on the clock. Made it by six minutes. 2522. Two-two. Suspicious auto, no occupant, near North Dabblin Court. Got a red Nissan Maximum, blocking the alley for 12 hours. No further. No, no. All right, for the innocent 15, pending on the board, I got a suspicious auto with occupants near North Austin. Two male blocks going northbound in a Chevy Cobol, light gray in color, all the tires blown out, the window shattered. Also got a selling at near North Menard. Both pending in 15 and 25. We got a person down at near West Cortland, mail down on the ground. Fire is rolling. No further. In-22, I'll check out fast. I will advise if I get in that for a call. Kind of cut out, is this 152-2? 99. All right, tell me your way. 25-15. 2515. 2515. 2515. 25. 15. 2511 for the assistance. 11. 11. 15 and 11 of mental health disturbance, near North Mango, (name withheld). She called for her son. He's 25. He has a history of mental illness. She called last night. He fled before the police got there, but now he's returned, and he's in the basement. No further. Very nice. 99-125. Double-25. Which is the unit that we need to stop on the vehicle? 5 (name withheld) has them on the expressway. 99. Do they have him in custody, and are they going to leave the vehicle there, or are they going to move it somewhere else? Yes, they have him in custody, and the vehicle, more than likely is there. That car crashes into a lot of cars, so it's probably still unseen. They're inbound on the Kennedy at Avondale. Okay, gotcha. I didn't know it crashed. I thought you just made the stop. Okay, I'll let the owner know. Yeah, per the ticket, it said local lanes car crashes to several cars in custody on the ground.
