Okay, (name withheld).
00:07
It's supposed to be a box and was on fire again in the stairwell.
00:12
What about a lot of this?
00:14
On the north end stairwell, we're going to check it out.
00:18
Okay, four, you're in the north tower.
00:21
That's where we're in, north tower, north stairwell.
00:25
See that.
00:30
Copy on my way.
00:33
Three four, go ahead.
00:36
Hey, Chief, we've got fully charged stairwell.
00:39
Looks like somebody used a dry chemical extinguisher.
00:42
Looks like everything's out,
00:44
but we could use ventilation up here.
00:47
Okay,
00:48
we'll get truck for on that.
00:51
Does anyone complain of any medical emergencies?
00:55
Three four, Ninja, Ninja, four.

01:04
What permit service?
01:07
Copy it, I'll love them off.
01:10
Before okay.
01:13
That's for the engine for you.
01:15
What floor do you need to stand on?
01:20
Man, we've got smoke on 11,
01:23
but the north stairwell is charged all the way to the top.
01:29
You might want to check it out, maybe go up to the fourth floor, check out that stairwell there and see how high it goes.
01:37
We're going to count me that.
01:39
Three-four and it is, right?
01:43
No, B-4.
01:45
Yeah, can you start out of you? We're going to have to do a report.
01:50
I'll copy that.
01:52
I'm sending my two guys up to the top floor to see if there's a ventilation opening at the top of the east stairwell.
02:01
Yeah, there may not be an opening up there.
02:04
If we go to the very furthest north point,
02:08
that might open to the outside somehow.
02:14
Yeah, that's where they're going.
02:15
They're going to go to the top of the north stairwell.
02:19
Okay, we're getting ready.
02:20
We'll push this on in a minute.

Chief, dispatch said to contact you.
02:38
Yeah, I'm going to need you guys to respond out here near West 25th.
02:44
We got on.
02:45
We have a bottom player in the stairwell again.
02:50
Okay.
02:52
We're going to see you shortly.
02:53
We're seeing the 11th floor.
02:57
Matter 4 to B4.
03:01
Go on, (name withheld).
03:04
Chiefs, the north stairwell does not have roof access,
03:08
but the center stairwell does.
03:10
I'm going to go down and get the keys from the Knox Box on the roof access that's not right now.
