Medic 5, Durham. Do you have fire en route for walking? We have multiple vehicles taking up lanes of traffic, con-40. Make 5. Go for medic 5. Yeah, I don't have fire out there. We assume that. PD's got the roadblock. You never send them out there, I'd be more than happy to. 10-4. Yes, we have vehicles on the shoulders on both sides, and with our ambulance and the one police car, I don't think that's enough to keep us all from getting hit. I'll have to put it over just a second. Map on the way too, I do believe, but fire will be great. NBC, 27,652 I40 East. NBC, 27,652 I40 East.
