You need a phone? I copy. Broadcasting further on that call, looks like the email clearing to be a lieutenant was on the phone asking about an employee and if she was alone where she was in the building. And it looks like the owner is going to be on their way. ETA is 10 to 12 minutes, Nate Black X40 although. Normal response.
