Could you check for Manning Street? I have a resident call here. She's not home at this time, but I guess twice today she stated that there was a van parked in front of her house,
00:11
and they were coming up ringing the doorbell.
00:15
She's just concerned with her house being broken into in the past, and she has no services or anything that she's aware of, you know, that they should be there.
00:26
It's near Manning St.
00:30
One if you might not be four manate.
00:32
Fire permission, 3.
00:38
3 is off in quarter.
00:42
3 is in quarter.
00:49
What age you, they're ready. I'm in the area right now.
00:52
There's no sight of that white van on Manning Street.
00:57
Copy that.
01:04
118. Just a follow-up on that. Did she want us to walk the area, the perimeter around her house, just to check, make sure to drive?
01:13
Right.
01:16
I assume you could because she's concerned.
01:19
She wasn't sure if the van was out there any longer.
01:22
She was asking for an officer to go check because whoever was in the van had approached her front door twice, ringing the doorbell.
01:31
And her concern was that they had been broken into in the past.
01:35
And like I said, she is not expecting any services or anybody at her house.
01:44
Copy. You just confirm that numeric on manager, please?
01:48
Number four, Manning.
01:49
Four Manning.
01:54
God, we'll be out walking around the house.
02:01
One is you to arrest.
02:05
Go ahead, then.
02:08
Everything appears to be okay here.
02:10
Does she want a call back?
02:13
Right, I told her I would call her back with your outcome.
02:17
Again, she was just seeking that everything checked okay and if the van was still in front of her residence.
02:25
Copy yet, you want to let her know the van is gone and her house looks,
02:30
I'll appear to be okay here. She'll be out good.
02:33
Right, thank you.
