316 to 314.
00:01
It sounds like it's just a misunderstanding between the girlfriend and the boyfriend, so we can probably release him.
00:06
This one's kind of unusual.
00:08
The address is going to be 207 North Tower Avenue.
00:12
Our caller is an Uber driver.
00:14
His passenger was at a bar in Lawrence County, and whenever the caller picked up this passenger, the bartender advised that this passenger is suicidal.
00:27
The caller is currently en route to 207 North Tower.
00:31
They'll be there in about 25 minutes with the suicidal suitcase.
00:36
If they're still in Dade County,
00:40
would we not be better to check on them there?
00:46
That was my thought as well.
00:49
However, the Uber driver doesn't feel comfortable stopping with the suicidal passenger in his vehicle.
00:55
So he wants to continue to that passenger's drop-off point, which is the log.
01:01
Claire, would you see if there's another available because I had to fight this guy about two weeks ago? 329 came as a call back to me, but I'll go 324.
01:10
329, I'm clear.
01:12
That's clear.
01:13
I'm going to start counting that way.
01:16
420, 425.
01:18
324, 329.
01:19
The mail arrived in a black dodge, quote, beat-up truck.
