Yeah, five months ago, they want to help and consider how close to the celebration point. Did the witness see the rifle? He didn't mention it, but, yeah, I mean, as soon as we asked about the description, he was like, yeah, yeah, definitely saw him. All right. Is this the storage unit just south of the Buck Depot? Yeah, it's simple. All right, I'm set up at the office of the storage units. I got a straight shot in. There's a chain-leaf fence in the wooded area. Ronnie is...
00:29
setting up that Holiday Express. So if the time lapse is good, he should either pop out in one of us or be heading toward the interstate. So we need probably at least one or two along I-75. All right, hold on. I'm 1012 with that witness now. He's saying that he saw him exit this storage compound heading westbound. So he ran out of here, jumped over the fence, and he thinks he's closer to the interstate. So he's not in the storage compound. 10-4[2]. That means what? What is that, Ronnie?
00:59
What's that road over there back behind the other storage units by the retention plant and everything? 29th Avenue runs over to that little side road by the interstate. Yeah, 40th Boulevard up all the way up to there, I think it would be probably the next big bet. Sorry, if you still sent 12, can you ask him about any single zeros? He didn't mention anything when I asked him. Yeah, he said he did not see any signals. He said he didn't see any guns. He said he was just running like he was out of his mind or on something.
01:28
Can you look at the hotels in this area and just give them a call? That way they were. Keep an eye out. 10-4[2]. Rob, you want to set a perimeter, you want us to just keep a low-profile-up right there so we won't go any further south. We can keep you contained in this little block up here. It should be good. Jamesville, I'm not a 42nd way and 40th Boulevard. 42nd way and 40th Boulevard. All right, what do you guys want to go with the shoe?
01:58
We don't need it currently now, Sutton, if you just want to help 1014 for this guy. Okay. Well, based on what this is saying, he's probably contained between the Celebration Point Bridge, 40th Boulevard, 42nd Way, and the interstate. 10-4[2]. I'm going to be off the air game so I'll just call me. 10-4. I'm going to be uniform all the way north on 40th Boulevard, so the dirt pass. 10-4.
02:27
Be good to Pat with ASA.S. 10-4[2]. 10-4. 13-7, Kyle, on 97 celebration point. Can you confirm what charges they have? Now he's leading the scene of the crash. He was seeing Signal Zero[1] with a rifle, actor and I raped when he took off.
02:56
and there's three or four rifles in the car.
02:59
All right, we've got multiple histories of domestics with him and the female half.
03:03
They're making 1025 with her now to confirm.
03:05
If she's not there, she's more than likely on the way to come pick him up.
03:08
So I'm standing by for 43, reference all that.
03:10
Let me say, should we want to start stopping cars in the area and check in when they pass us?
03:14
1375. 26. So if he's no longer, 1041, the rifle, just leaving the scene of a crash.
03:18
Correct.
03:19
Yes. What was the last meeting wearing? Gray shirt and on colored shorts and a ball cap.
03:23
Was that a handgun magazine that he tossed?
03:25
No. Right.
03:26
Someone north of me on 42nd way, there was somebody on foot.

Next time of Lauren, yes sir, same point of activation, same title.
04:06
Sorry, just for confirmation, we're thinking south of the celebration point bridge, right? That's what we're betting on.
04:13
Yeah, based on what this witness is saying, he's saying he ran roughly west from the self-storage yards.
04:19
So yeah, that's from south.
04:20
All right, 10-4[2].
04:21
I guess we'll wait for 43, see if we have any charges from APD.
04:24
And if not, we can start picking apart these little industrial complexes over here.
04:27
There's like two little storage unit business complexes that are over here between there and the hotel.
04:32
He's probably likely better down in because I don't see him at all in the retention pond over here.
