And no AC unit, correct? Because it looks like they did place two AC units in the bed of the truck on the video that he has here.
00:10
No, no AC unit to it.
00:15
Thank you.
00:18
Just for info, he stated as soon as the, he's not certain it was the security agreement, so he told him to put the UCANs back, so that's when he took him out of the truck and they took off, and that's when the tow truck driver started to follow him.
00:32
I'll see if I can't see him here, but if he doesn't have them, then I think we're good to let him go.
00:39
All right, just for information. He's good to go.
00:49
So it said,
00:50
real quick, though, it looks like a suspect vehicle throughout an AC unit at I-17 at Greenway Road, northbound, just south as the Bell Road exit.
00:58
They have it on camera. I didn't know if A needed it for evidence.
01:04
Yeah, the heroic tow truck driver is still 23, so we'll talk to him.
01:09
So far.
01:13
Fair 5, just to clarify, he did steal it 104 and then he threw it out of the truck as he was being pursued 104.
01:23
So it sounds like they were just trapping, they took the broken down AC unit, put it in the bed of their truck, took off.
01:30
Once the tow truck driver told them they needed that the security guard wanted it back, they took it out of the bed of their truck, so yes.
01:41
From Lincoln for info, security card over here. We want the prosecution.
01:45
So if those AC units are over at the 17 and Greenway, they would have been the ones who dumped them off.

Simple.

Just for clarification for our part, the truck, the suspect vehicle, was trying to evade the tow truck driver that was behind him the whole time.
02:25
Just an halfway.
02:31
The gentleman that we had obtained is saying that he was not trying to evade the tow truck driver. He knew that he was following him the whole time, and he was not intending to lead anybody on a high-speed chase.
02:45
I'm just letting you know he was at higher speeds than normal, and he was ducking in out of roads trying to get away from the truck, at least as far as we can see from up there.
02:57
Copy that, sir. Thank you so much.
03:03
I can just go check the I-17 Greenway. Did they say it was northbound? You know, think?
