Carol, can you start the sheriff's office or contact MSP and see if they can get an additional trooper to shut down to westbound, Ottawa 40? Correct. Correct.
00:12
That's correct. We'll make the request.
00:18
This is a medic. We'll take a GPS narrowing status. We got a moment.
00:25
Trooper 3, this is EMS 101.
00:30
We have a (number withheld)-year-old male extended extrication involved in a head-on collision.
00:39
Still currently being extricated. He is stable at this point.
00:43
We've unable to be accessed lower extremities at this point. He's about to be extricated and I'll have more information for you when you land.
00:54
Good job. He's still extricating.
00:57
We're showing three outs this point, how there?
01:05
Ask you the command patient extricated.
01:09
Command copies, extrication is complete.
01:12
Carol, you're direct.
01:16
Trituted 357.
01:21
Prevention 3-1.
01:25
Okay, Carol.
01:28
Are you on the scene?
01:32
Yeah, that's correct.
01:34
We have a sheriff's unit that's starting your way. He's going to expedite, not for his ETA.
01:45
Cobby, let's say one of the troopers was heading up the road there.
01:50
I'm assuming to stop the traffic coming westbound.
01:54
And maybe they could send somebody. So I've got some vehicles coming eastbound. Somebody can go down to 140 and 91 and shut that down there.
02:06
Number 3-2-0-ZZ, go ahead. News confirming you want us to land in the eastbound or westbound and east or west of the accident.
02:16
To be overhead momentarily.
02:20
I'm going to put you in the west down lane,
02:24
which is going to be east of the incident scene. So it's going to be between the incident scene and you'll see where I have the engine park.
02:35
That's a big sense more we should be overhead shortly, thanks.
02:40
But a point on status check.
02:43
We're good.
02:45
400.
02:50
Engine 3-1-t Trooper 3, I believe I'll have you in sight. If you continue on that current heading, you're going to come right over the accident.
03:00
We believe we've got you too, sir.
03:07
For any reason, this isn't feasible, not too far from here, it's Gerstell Academy.
03:12
I believe right there along the Old Westminster Pike, they have several open,
03:17
large grass fields there.
03:23
And then's 3-1.
03:25
MSP's up there, but it looks like there's still traffic coming eastbound.
03:32
It looks like traffic's still going both ways.
03:34
I got them coming at me down here.
03:40
Three is that final.
03:47
All units hold your traffic.
03:49
Trip 3 on 5.
03:54
Super 3, keep an eye right there. I'm not sure there are lines.
03:58
I can see them now that are crossing 140.
04:02
Halfway between myself and the incident scene.
04:05
I'm not sure if you're slow going with this or not.
