Okay, this is going to be at the 100.5 westbound I-70.
00:04
Deer versus car,
00:06
it's going to be a 2017 silver Ford.
00:10
No injuries. The deer is blocking, vehicle is partially blocking, but pulled over.
00:14
R.P. apparently, is Spanish-speaking, and that's the further I got from Garfield.
00:23
Can you find out if that vehicle is going to be drivable, if it's going to be drivable?
00:29
And can you see if Garfield is going to just drag the deer out of the roadway? Break.
00:34
Go ahead.
00:35
With it being drivable, can you see if we can get either a phone report or counter report authorized for this?
00:43
Copy our 64 Mantras.
00:47
Montrose are 64 that day firm as long as there is not each oach or anything about nature suspected.
00:54
Kathy, thank you.
00:55
Oh, 101.
00:57
Base!
00:59
Base! Parking, 504!
01:07
Oh,
01:10
shit!
01:13
Last copy.
01:19
Master, do you have a good night? Use well, sir.
01:23
Happy Thanksgiving at 113.
01:30
S.A13, off D-D, have a good night.
01:35
S-O-13, have a good night, 114.
01:38
One-14. One-Furturturely 4-Montras.
01:53
Montres, which I forgot.
01:54
Okay, I just got off the phone with Garco.
01:57
I got talked to the RP,
01:59
and she said that the vehicle is smoking.
02:02
She said there was no fluids.
02:03
She told Garfield that there was no fluids, but with it smoking, I have a feeling there might be, so I asked them to send fire out there and seeing if they could pull the deer out of the road.
02:13
Looks like Valley is the next one in rotation.
02:16
I could give them a call and see if we could get them out there, and then either email or fax them, CSP.
02:23
Is that what you would like me to do?
02:26
If the vehicle is smoking, I'll go out there and just check on it.
02:30
It sounds like when they initially did it.
02:32
It was probable how you were talking.
02:35
I'll run out there and just checking the vehicle.
02:39
Okay. Do you want me to go ahead and call Valley in the meantime? She speaks pretty good English, the driver.
02:46
Copy that. She said she, they want to tell?
02:50
Yeah,
02:51
I'll double-check with her, I'll call her back,
02:53
and I'll put you in route.
02:55
What do you think your ETA would be on that?
03:00
Probably about 15, that's maybe 20.
03:05
Okay, and if she said yes, they do want to tow, you want to go ahead and call the next toast, get them going?
03:11
That's it for them.
03:13
All right, thank you, sir.
03:14
I'll let her know. 118.
