Dispatch Firefifty. Fire 30,
05:57
Your traffic.
06:02
Yeah,
06:03
we're trying to figure out what's going on here.
06:06
So are you telling us that the owner threw an app,
06:11
check that arm off?
06:19
We were advised there was a fire alarm panic taking through an app.
06:29
Okay,
06:30
someone talked to the owner,
06:32
and obviously they're not here, but are they somewhere?
06:37
The alarm company made contact with the owner, so she is not home, and she is not responding,
06:44
and she has requested a cancellation.
06:50
So we think she set the alarm off with her phone.
06:54
Nothing happened here as far as the one of the house, correct?
07:00
The way it sounds is that I was set off for an app, but I'm not sure because I'm not the alarm company, and I didn't think you Mitchell.
