Hey, we've just passed the caller as they were leaving (name withheld) to go to the hospital. And they've advised medics no longer needed. You can show us any. That's great. I'm sure you, clear, 249. Thank you, sir. Check out for alarm. Patient contact. Copy contact. Only one's your alarm. Tanger 21. Hey, did you speak with a caller? about this. I did, I took this call. They couldn't really give me a lot of information. They were just kind of hollering at me and said that they had seen this person start a fire and go under the bridge, but that's all I could get out of them. That was useful. Okay. Yeah, we found smoke. We know where it comes from, basically. But I can't find any people or remnants of people, so it's kind of odd. We're just wondering if it's a train under here too, so we're just wondering if it's coming from this train. All right, we'll investigate a little further. Thank you.
