Engine 4 and Medic 1. You hit it to the 7-mile mark of I-235 westbound for a PI. Looks like it's going to be just past MLK between MLK and Cottage Grove, but definitely on the interstate. Got a couple calls here that there's a two-car accident. One male is on the ground. There appears to be some other people complaining of forehead pain and other injuries. There is a possibility of three patients. Would you like for me to sign another medic? Yeah, I think it's probably one more medic for right now and we'll advise on any more. Copy. I'll get another one started. See back from DC-1. Medic 6. 7-mile marker by 2.35, 7-mile marker by 235 westbound for PI. Go-responseably on Channel 2. Timeout 1439. Go ahead, DC1. I'm at station forward. You go ahead and have me to that call on T-35 as well. Copy. So on you on it now? If you want to copy, I'll be switching channel two. Copy. Copy. I'll be switching channel two. Copy. Copy. Medic is situated to the 7-mile marker by 235 westbound for a PI.
