The caller's back on the line saying she sees somebody in the front and she thinks they're running in front of her house.
00:09
They're running westbound.
00:15
I don't wait to say copy.
00:18
I copy. I copy.
00:21
I think it's three Lincoln six.
00:22
He's going westbound.
00:25
We're on 27 right now.
00:28
Had his spotlight on it could have been him.
00:32

The units on the shooting.
00:46
The complainant's boyfriend, (name withheld), has a felony DB kidnapping, 1082.
00:54
He lived there as recently as late July.
00:57
Adam 8 to 3U16, if he was associated to any vehicles?
01:04
3U8 to the units on this call.
01:06
There is a green laser being pointed towards the direction of Paul Overti from West 27th, from where you guys are.
01:19
For you, it, I...
01:21
kept going just in case.
01:23
It's hard for me to see where the laser was coming from.
01:27
But it was definitely being pointed to the direction of the house that they're at.
01:34
6, I thought too.
01:43
I know you said airs down, correct?
01:48
They're just 10-6, let's talk 50.
01:53
I'll copy that.
01:54
So it's coming from the west, doing directly east down the road.
02:02
It's probably a block away, block west of us, so from Halliverty at least one block.
02:10
He was pointing directly at me in my vehicle.
02:13
I don't know if they knew I was a cop, but let's get some more units and what's that plods, please.
02:23
Anything else with area 2.7 in question.
02:30
Let's start with 26th in city, 28th in city,
02:36
26th in Jones, and 28th in Jones.
02:43
I'm going to take 2.8 in Jones for now.
02:48
I don't think they went further west than Jones.
02:56
3-8 can you go 39 so we get quads still please? 10 for any additional can assist with quads?
03:06
For Adam 6-5
03:09
3 out of me so he'll have any clearance
03:17
3-08 I got a pretty good eye on Jones all the way down so if we can get that um
03:24
Let's say north-eastern quad field next, I think that would probably be the most beneficial.
03:35
If you think they're not that far out there, then we'll move our west one to Randolph Parkway instead.
03:44
Keep the quad to be called out.
03:48
be moving pretty quick.
03:50
Before I saw this laser, I was – before I saw this laser, I was a guy who said his dollar from Brown 108, the highway north of 2-7, so it's possible they're going to work in the holidays or in the streets.
04:03
Yeah, 3U8 to 3 Lincoln A.
04:04
From my vantage point, it didn't look like they were past Jones yet.
04:08
I did stand off for about a minute to a minute and a half, so I couldn't give them time to keep going west.
04:15
I'm not sure what you saw, though.
04:19
When you started calling it out, they were still trying that laser.
04:30
I'm on foot on 27th.
04:32
I have a straight shot west.
04:34
So far no one's crossed north.
04:39
Here looking eight to three on eight six.
04:41
Where are you? Because I think I'm in front of you.
04:50
I'm like 20 feet away from 27 in Chrysler.
04:59
I'm at 26 and City.
05:02
Also,
05:03
since we're not sure what they have, we should probably not be in our vehicles.
05:13
Same for a month, I'm diverting to really moving here.
05:18
Stand 4, no class open, 28th in city, 26 in Jones.
05:26
No,
05:30
22.
05:37
For right now,
05:39
no vehicles down 27th, everything needs to be on foot.
05:43
All have I see for right now.
