00:42
They've got plow shells running around here anyways.

00:54
You said you got five guys?
00:56

00:58
Okay.

Might not be another one, but I did on this one.

Celeste, I'll take that work order when you have a generated, please.
01:06

01:07
Andrew that it is a place, too.
01:09
Yep, I will test you and Tony.
01:11
Give me a second here, I guess.
01:12
Share. Uh-oh, okay.
01:14
Sounds good.
01:15
Hey Tony, what department is out there?
01:18
I'm sorry, you say what department?
01:20
Yes.
01:21
As far as law enforcement agencies, I'm just...
01:23
Yes.
01:25
Well,
01:26
I don't know.
01:27
That would have been a sheriff.
01:29
He did cut out, though.
01:59
So let's get the sheriff back.
02:01
We got another accident right here.
02:06
Tom, my God, I'm on the phone.
02:08
We're out right down the road from you?
02:10
No, right here where the broken pole is.
02:12
We've got flares out, and someone come up too fast and slowed down, and the other person behind was flying and went sideways and hit them.
02:20
Tom, she's asking any injury in this? Well, they both got other vehicles, so when I can tell no, but I'm not outside of the vehicle.
02:28
I'm going to walk over there, so I'll get them cleared off the road before someone else smacks them.
02:34
Okay.
02:36
Yeah, I caught her on the phone.
02:38
We're going to see what we can do.
02:39
I might just go and call some floggers to do you any good because if I can't get the road shut down.
02:43
They're busy.
02:45
Can you not get a hold of by the township or say saying no?
02:50
Yeah.
02:51
And now I'm on some of Fairfield, but yeah.
02:55
Well, Fairfield's not going to do it.
02:58
And we don't have road close signs.
03:01
Hey, Tony.
03:03
Tom, they're asking me, there's no injuries with this one?
03:07
Well, one disappeared, and the other one got out of their cars.
03:09
I do not believe so.
03:12
Okay.
03:13
That's going to be a hit and run.
03:15
Hey, Tony,
03:16
I'm just thinking we might want to kick them players off it.
03:19
These people aren't paying attention.
03:21
Okay.
03:23
I think, I don't know.
03:24
I mean, whatever you think.
03:26
That's what that woman or that car that you just got in front of you.
03:29
She waited until the last second, of course, but she's teaming them players.
03:34
Yeah, I don't freak out.
03:36
Yeah, she's 18.
03:37
Okay,
03:39
I got to write down this vehicle, call her,
03:42
make. I got the plate number four.
03:44
I'll give it to her, and then I'll keep these players off.
03:46
All right.
03:47
I was thinking of cutting that cable too, but I don't want to get on that route.
03:52
No, no, we're staying off this route.
03:54
Hold on, guys.
03:55
I'm working on it.
