Spokane Engine 18, 6227, North Standard Street, Channel City Primary. All. Good, five. Good. Do we have any leads at this point, nor 8,000 if we got a name for him? No, not really. He was talking to his mom on the phone, and so was I. Poor language barrier, but it sounds like she was frantic and she was coming home. I have no idea, though. Okay. ...with an unlocked door and grab the phone, and he could talk to the person on the other end, so I'm assuming we're at his home.
