So if you can just do a flyover on top of this public storage building or business, just see if you see if you see anybody on top of the roof.
04:35
No, we've got no description, no description of any suspects.
04:41
I'll be there in five two minutes.
04:44
I'm here in church.
04:48
Okay,
04:49
what's going on over there?
04:52
You have HFD out here.
04:55
What now was funny, he got hit by the RV that was rolling out of the parking lot. We have already video, but if I can get a unit out here.
05:08
Okay, it looks like I see something in the area already, but it's just the HFD call at Maine in Oakdale. Let's clear, I'll get a unit out there.
05:21
Thank you, ma'am,
05:23
Ma'o, so two times. Hold us out at the station, P.P.O. could work, please.
05:31
Yes,
05:33
ma.
05:34
Mr.
05:37
Robin, this is an H. 83-7. John, that can clear any of their name.
05:43
The L.A.N.H. Detifers, Tim, you all right to be in Senate.
05:49
A 41048.
05:50
What floor are you on the third floor? I'm going to send the manager to come to get you in the elevators.
05:57
You'll see where our shops are. Just enter in those sliding glass doors. The manager will meet you in the elevator.
06:07
They're not seeing anything up on the roof.
06:09
Does they take somebody broke hands from the saw?
06:14
18.40 days for Fox. We're not sure how entry was made. We do have damage on the third floor.
06:22
It's going to be in the rafters between the roof and the actual unit storage box containers here. So how he made entries, probably he just came in like a regular citizen wood, made his way to the third floor, and he just hopped up on top of the rented units and made his way into one of them. But we're still unclear if he's even in one.
06:44
So on Main Street, you see the United Methodist Church.
06:47
There's like a couple of churches right here, but yeah, it's literally right in front of the Methodist Church as well.
06:53
Okay, on the street right at the intersection.
06:58
Yes, ma'am.
07:00
Thank you.

07:23
Okay.
07:29
This 48, can you repeat that? Yeah.
07:33
Fox units there, the roof is clear.
07:39
48, that's clear, thank you.
07:43
35s been robbed to it.
07:45
Well, they said HPD not needed.
07:49
This must be a metro.
07:53
A bus versus a vehicle, HPD, not needed.
07:56
Is it okay for me to just cancel this one in?
08:00
I don't know why they dropped it.
08:05
Oh, too, that's the story to cancel.
08:13
99, D-45, can you put me on 91's call? Let me on 41's call.
08:19
That's clear.
08:20
We found out that the unit that we're looking at at 336, it looks like a homeless encampment inside that unit, a bunch of clothing and discarded materials and junk, and it could be possibly a homeless now or whoever, you know, burglarize the place is bedded underneath there.
08:38
There's a hole inside the rafters that they can slip through.
08:42
Repeat a unit number.
08:46

08:49
