Go ahead. Are you responding or monitoring? We're responding. Copy. So, Engine 41 had a fire down in a storm drain. Once smoke cleared, we could see it's a car, a vehicle that is in the storm drain that is underneath the on-ramp to the 95 hitting northbound.

I think we've got the majority of the fire knocked down, but there are reports of vagrants that have been in and out of this tunnel. And so we are able to see pretty close to where the sea of the fire is, but feel it's best to have TRT go in and investigate into a primary of the tunnel. We'll go ahead and establish tunnel command. Time for copies. How far?

Into the tunnel are you re-assuming 50, 100 feet? Roughly 70 feet. Copy that. Break. Heavy Rescue 44 from the Italian 4. Go ahead, it's heavy. I'm sure you copy that report from Engine 41. Do you need to need any additional resources at this time for you guys? No.

Just with the distance, it's just 70 feet. We'll probably just do air packs, horizontal entry. Just to do a quick primary. Got me. Is Judge Kassix? We're trying to locate the address. Can we recall to verify that address, please.
