04:06
Copy. It might be worth.
04:08
Having someone head out in Hendrix and see if it's more east of town.
04:20
7332. Were they hearing it, were they exterior of the house or inside their house and hearing it?
04:25
That'll give us a basis on how far away it would have been.
04:30
A little of both started when they were inside and then they went out on their front porch and still heard it, but they couldn't quite triangulate it.
04:38
But once they were outside, they said it sounded like it was coming more from the east.
04:45
Okay.
04:47
Okay.
05:03

High school.
06:12
Copy.
06:14
If you can,
06:15
if you're still there, ask them what they were saying or if they were yelling certain things because my caller said they might have heard somebody say help.
06:25
Yeah,
06:26
I talked about that they're not, they weren't yelling anything other than just normal,
06:31
play yelling while playing ball.
06:33
And I had to make the loudestown they could with the ball, and I'm certainly not gunshot sound.
06:40
Copy.
06:54
Not a firm, I just turned on.
06:57
Mind reader.
