Hey, I'm about 12 minutes out, 15 minutes out. It's really hot out here, but we have helicopters and drones over here and on the radio. We have about 20, 25 minutes of the 12. Not sure on additional resources, depending on the office we have. We're not sure on a helicopter yet. It sounds like two to three drones from Ellis County. We really have two to three from Altsinacchi. 3513[3] ran behind 40-70 black tamper in a large area being cleared out with a lot of construction. I'm going to try to pull in there because that's directly north of where this guy ran from. Okay. 303[2], show me in service. I'll be headed to that location. Again, it's similar from 35. If you'll stay on 287 proper, do not hit the service road, stay on the shoulder. Do we know where they need people set up at location when we need to start looking? 10-4[1]. 823[4], same traffic. Same 4. See, I'll be back out of here. Man, I'm here at the location. We're by the high school on a northbound surface road. Where did you say the DPS helicopter is grounded? I wish that, can you find that out? We just called back for an update on the ETA. They're supposed to call us back.
