Security companies report another alarm at 800 Walnut Street.
00:11
That alarm should have come from the Mulberry address.
00:15
We pulled another pull station.
00:19
That's what I was thinking you could say.
00:30
134.
00:34
I'll see any luck on those teeth.
00:39
On my way.
00:48
Yeah.
00:52
We got this reset up here.
00:53
If you guys got yours reset,
00:55
you can reset the system.
01:00
Yeah, we don't yet.
01:06
I don't think there's an official road name.
01:08
It's the dead end just to the west of prospect.
01:15
Oh my.
01:19
333.
01:21
And 3.36, Adam.
01:25

01:32
The female caller named (name withheld), so she needs the police, and then hung up.
01:40

01:45
3.30, Adam.
01:49
You can clear my case made and I'm right next to 33.
01:52
I can go with her.
01:54
That'd be the 336th, I'll leave it for now.
02:01
Yeah, it's not a play.
02:03
Okay.
02:06
Just for your information, we just got in their call, same as it, we got a drop at 800 Walnut, and this was also going to be another pull station from some 3-3-9.
02:18
If that means anything to you, do you think it's possible somebody could be going there, pulling all the pull stations right now? Do you want me to start PD?
02:27
Well,
02:28
we've been messing with the pull stations over here.
02:31
We can run over to 800 Walnut and see what happens, see if there's anything over there.
02:36
But I'm not seeing any strobes from this angle.
02:43
Interesting that we keep getting drops from over there too, but no, it's just straight.
02:48
Just let me know what you need.
02:50
Copy.
02:56

Okay, thank you, 46.

Stigmatics for Hispanic male, not alert, not breathing.
03:57
He's had a couple of drinks and similar as a fan.
04:03
Okay.
04:07
I'm not having a flair day.
04:10
I'm not seeing any visible strobes from the side.
04:18
Yeah, something's on.
04:21
One 77.
04:23
He shows in the area.
04:25
Where exactly was it hanging out again?
04:30
It's going to be at the end of the dead end road west of Prospect.
04:34
Looks like Outland and Restoration Church are to the east of the road.
04:40
I'll drive around now.
04:45

Dispatch from Measure 1.
05:02
Go for dispatch.
05:06
We are over an 800 Walnuts panel.
05:09
There are no alarms present.
05:12
I believe all of those pull stations were from us over at the Mulberry location.
05:18
So we'll just need to get in touch with this security and tell them they need to get the alarm company to get this figured out for them.
05:27
Copy that, Edgwant.
05:28
I'll make a note of it here.
