Do you have a callback number for the caller about the transformer at 10th and Avenue? Yeah, 104, it was a passerby, and I do have a contact number. If they can maybe give a little bit better description, if PD's already been driving around, we're not seeing anything in the immediate vicinity. Ten4, I'll call him right. Thank you. 692, do you go? Go ahead, Google. Caller stated, when coming from the cemetery facing the school at that stoplight on 10th, there's a black spiral object, whatever, hanging on the power line, halfway across. He saw that object smoking and then went out at some point before calling us. 10-4[1], we'll go check it out, thank you.
