Residence is 42.
02:48
You're going to have to do it from up above,
02:52
but there's definitely visible fire.
02:54
You probably get it from up there because this roof back here is actually wood.
02:58
It's not metal.
03:00
42 can you have headquarters for your supply, please.
03:04
Okay, copy that.
03:06

They're up there now.
03:41
That's where the hole is.
03:43
I think they're up, but you can come in just so I can get an inside video.
03:47
You might be able to be up there from inside of here.
03:50
Copy in now, 22.
