211 are you seeing any civilians, pets, anything in these yards before we start a search? I have a heat signature. It's in the heavy trees. It's going to be on the curve of willow. Let me get you a coordinate. I can't get you the house number, but let me get your coordinate. Same right. 150, sorry, but the coordinate's not going to do anything for us.
01:37
If you've got Google Maps on your phone, if you read it, type it in exactly as I give it to you, it'll drop up in exactly where he's at. Officer, if you give us the coordinates, we'll give you the address.
01:51
Did you say Willow?
01:53
Okay, dispatch coordinates 41.18177, negative 96.03374, and it's going to be the backyard.
02:08
It would be the tree line in its backyard just to the south.
02:12
There's a house, and then there's another house in the pool.
02:15
There's a heat signature that is moving in the tree line back there.
02:18
2.11, are you to the west of us by Willow?
02:20
The house I'm looking at is going to be Willow Street, just east of Leaf Plum Drive,
02:29
and north of Cottonwood Ave is what I'm looking at right now.
02:31
If it's the big oval pool, the house of the north is going to be 7717 willow.
02:38
Okay, and it's going to be one house north of that, and then the property line between that house and the next one north.
02:46
So between the second and first house, so it's north.
02:49
It's in that tree line.
02:50
Okay, 150. Myself and King 92 are headed up there to check it.
02:54
Everybody else is holding the permit.
02:55
Clear. 323 out westment route.
02:57
Okay. Clear. So the house north of that is the 1713 willow and then the central park is directly behind that.
03:04
The path is behind that as well.
03:06
150s, a responding therapy unit.
03:07
Can I get you guys to go into Central Park?
03:11
Level five, there.
03:12
Robert for a clerk.
03:13
Thank you.
03:14
I'm 41211.11, we're at Willow and Cottonwood.
03:16
Okay, I see you at Willow and Cottonwood.
03:18
So you're going to turn, you're going to go north.
03:20
And it's going to be three houses up.
03:24
There's a...
03:25
silver SUV in the driveway, that's the driveway that you're going to want to go up.
03:30
They want to stay on the right side of that house, and it's straight back in that tree line.
03:34
There is a heat signature, and it has moved, but it is a heat signature.
03:40
So just to your north there.
03:41
Clerk, we'll go in beside the silver SUV.
03:43
Clear, and it's going to, yeah, straight back from there, Typeri.
03:46
211, is it a tree line directly in front or is it the back of the house?
03:50
So it's the back of the house.
03:52
It's going to be essentially on its fence line.
03:54
The fence line separates it from the park and the heat signatures coming straight from in those trees.
03:59
It just moved again.
04:00
Is it the one adjacent to the dog behind him? No, so from where the dog is straight south in the heavy tree line there, straight south of the dog.
04:13
Yep, walk straight forward both of you and directly to your, I guess, the east now.
