Central, looks like it's taped off by sheriff's department, probably Oakland County.
00:11
I got primaries down across the road, but they're not touching the road, but they're down.
00:21
Clear any arcing or sparking.
00:24
And are they connected on both sides still or?
00:41
They've pulled the pole and they're all wide.
00:48
They got several lines down at this address going down the driveway.
00:53
They got a broken pole and they have a tree and the lines further down the driveway.
00:57
But they need to get out here because the truck can't get through.
01:06
Okay, for a location having power, should I select yes or no?
01:12
The lights are on at (number withheld) in Otter Lake Road.
01:20
I'm sorry, I don't know if that means they have power or not.
01:23
Should I hit yes or no?
01:28
Yes, the wires are live.
01:29
They need to get out here as soon as possible.
01:32
They have broken poles, broken cross arms.
01:36
I think it's wanting to know if like the homeowner's out of power or not, so I can put in the address.
01:43
I have no idea.
01:44
There's no way of getting back to the house.
01:45
They got trees over the driveway, wires down across the driveway.
01:51
Okay.
01:53
I have to pick one, so I guess I'll just pick one.
01:54
And then it wants to no poles to pole or poles to building.
01:57
I can only pick one.
02:01
Poles to pole, several poles to pole, at least three poles to pole.
02:08
And you want me to put yes for parking?
02:13
That's affirmative.
02:18
And did you say one of the poles is broken?
02:25
I have multiple cross arms and at least two poles broken.
02:31
And any burning at a transformer or pole that you can help?
02:39
It's heavily wooded.
02:40
I do hear arcing in the woods.
