With heavy front-end damage, there'll be a non-preference. Then an Indiana trailer plate of (name withheld) 392252. About 46,000 pounds, and that's going to need a non-preference as well. If I'm able, please get the toes and rock. And Social 1449, you can advise the tow that they can get on southbound 75 at the 6 and backtrack to us. Clear. Central dispatch on the year to Dundee Fire response. Priority 1-16001 Brewer across River Ridge and Carmel Ridge for a 71-year-old male. Having chest pain in shortness of breath. Priority 1, timeout 1234. Is cellophon I-75 open? after the 6 or is that shut down still? Yeah, to open up, it's one lane south of where we're at. Okay, clear. So people wanting to get back on them, south can jump back on here. It can't, but don't get yourself logged in. Sounds good, clear.
