He's too close to this guy for a takedown right now, so just stand by, still leaning up against the sodas in the front of the, at the front door.
00:30
So this guy in the blue shirt is highly cuthate.
00:34
Me, I can tell he's got a boot and a sneaker on that kind of spoke to me.
00:45
I'll keep an eye on him too.
00:49
For whatever reason, he just pulled up his waistband.
00:53
He just pulled up the sweater.
00:59
Yeah, the older guy keeps staring over up the fan.
01:03
Yeah,
01:06
I want to say that was the same guy on Richard.
01:21
114 Hercl. Professor Hercules, 49, Bravo, India, Hotel Charlie, the blackboard is.
01:30
CD, I might, if you could get the phone number ready for 7-11, I might have you have the manager lock the doors here in a minute.
01:39
We may do this takedown on the front of the 7-Eleven.
01:41
I just want to make sure he doesn't have any access to that building at all, so just have that phone number ready.
01:48
Copy.
01:53
Once this blue car clears out of here, and those two are still doing that, we're going to push ahead with this and we're going to make sure the doors are locked.
02:00
All the occupants inside the 7-Eleven are towards the back and the managers lock the door.
02:06
So we might be doing an audible here.
02:13
14-15.
02:16
Yeah. I have no.
02:25
I have no idea why Sunstar is pulling it behind us right now.
02:33
Yeah, FD was staging at Drew and Keene, that's all we know.
02:37
Get them out of here.
02:39
They're screwing up our play.
02:40
Copy.
02:46
32 to 28, I have 7-Eleven's number.
02:59
All right. You're going to make the phone call then.
03:02
Go ahead and have the manager lock the doors and let me know when it's confirmed.
03:06
Copy calling them.
03:08
Tell them to make sure that all of their customers are towards the back.
03:14
Copy.
03:16
Copy.
03:20
It's going to make it awkward for you guys if we do this takedown with the cruisers the way that they're aligned.
03:24
I do want the armored van in the front of the store, but the way you guys position your car, just be careful not to expose yourself.
03:37
Copy.
03:39
No answer, I'm trying again.
03:46
Eagle to clear road about a while, wow.
03:48
We'll be on just a minute if you want us to stay wide.
03:52
Copy. Copy.
03:53
City 115 and 117, good for.
04:01
No.
04:03
924. 924.
04:06
Cool, we cut.
04:09
Still no answer, 28, 428.
04:12
Go ahead.
04:15
3-2-4-28, just still no answer, tried twice.
04:17
We'll try a third time.
04:20
Yeah, we can't do anything until those doors are locked.
04:22
I don't want him running in there.
04:26
So, the 28, he's this guy in a black jacket on the bike.
04:31
He's looking at this pretty hard.
04:32
I mean, rolling him to this on the other right now.
04:36
Okay, I don't know if we can get somebody in the back doors that is 7-Eleven to go in there and physically tell the person to lock the door either.
04:52
And I can get out and try.
04:55
Yeah, through those south doors, see if they're unlocked, which I doubt they are.
04:59
But if they are, then if you can get in there and, you know, obviously don't let them see you, but, you know, tell him to lock the doors.
05:11
I'm going to need an additional unit with me because I've got like three unknowns that are going to be out front that we're going to have to pay attention to them while the takedown's occurring.
05:23
K4, I'm in the same lot as you.
05:26
Okay, I got the guy with the hat, I got the horizontal stripe guy, and then I have the crazy dude with the boot and the sneaker.
05:32
I don't know where he went.
