I think there is an accident or something on Monarcher Boulevard going up towards Goucher Street.
00:08
A lot of traffic ahead of me is tough and I'm not exactly sure what's going on.
00:18
My knocker, Tours Goucher, thank you for the heads-up.
00:26
Yeah, it looks like everybody else is turning around.
00:30
I, of course, cannot do that,
00:33
so I'm going to have to wait it out.
00:35
So we may need that reporter to start my next one if I'm held behind that much.
00:45
That is received.
00:46
Keep me updated.
00:47
Let me know when you're back on the Moabier.
00:51
That's received, buddy.
00:55
It looks like it's involving a school bus.
01:12
242 to dispatch.
01:18
Good,
01:19
242. Yeah,
01:21
it looks like a lot of people are using a detour to go around this block.
01:27
Using Harvard Street or Avenue, making a left on the Harvard, making a right onto some street.
01:35
If you can please look up these streets and see if I can maybe do it myself.
01:41
Thank you.
01:43
242 to dispatch.
01:48
Go ahead, 242.
01:50
Yeah,
01:52
hey buddy, I'm going to let you know, there is injuries in this accident, so I'm going to be stuck here for a while.
02:03
That's received.
02:05
We have someone coming down to check out the area there for you, and I'll get to work seeing about the next trip there.
02:13
I certainly appreciate it.
02:14
Thank you very much.
02:15
I think my next one is just a Dale Solomon.
02:17
It's just a real quick and easy one.
02:19
And then after that, it says downtown settles, so not much of us trips at all.
02:27

03:12
I sure will, buddy.
03:14
I wish I could cut the strip short, but I had people for both areas, the Westwood Plaza and Hilltop Heights,
03:21
so I can't cut anything out.
03:23
And a second ambulance is on scene, so there's something thicker.
03:31
That is understood.
03:32
Thank you.
