Command 525, super is on location.
00:04
All right, received.
00:06
Command 525.
00:10
Copy that.
00:12
All right, chief, I'm in apartment 4A.
00:15
We have a section of the ceiling that has collapsed in the apartment.
00:18
I have my crew going to the apartment above to check it out.
00:23
All right, received.
00:27
013 from 525.
00:30
Yeah.
00:32
Hey, do you have the super with you by any chance?
00:36
Yeah, affirmative. We're checking the sink in apartment 4B.
00:41
That seems to be where the leak is originating from.
00:45
All right, received.
00:46
If you can send them down to 4A when you get a chance.
00:49
Command, did you receive that last message?
00:53
Affirmative, 4B.
00:56
5C5, the super is on the way down to you.
01:01
Received.
01:03
013 from 5C5.
01:06
Go ahead.
01:08
And just check 4C, just to be on the safe side as well.
01:13
All right, received.
01:14
Just be advised, I just talked to the tenant in 4B.
01:17
She said she had the sink running and forgot it was on, and it started overflowing.
01:22
So that could be the reason for the leak.
01:25
All right, received.
01:26
Let's still check 4C, just to cover our bases.
01:31
Yep, ten four.
01:34

5C5 from Command.

5C5 answering.
01:43
Captain, I have the squad here.
01:45
They have a note saying the ceiling fell on a person's head.
01:48
Is that correct?
01:50
Yes, affirmative.
01:51
Send them in. I don't believe the resident wants to get checked out.
01:54
But I'd rather have EMS evaluate to be on the safe side.
01:58
Received.

They're on their way in.
