109 from Elger Base.
00:44
Go ahead.
00:46
Is the power line obstructing you guys from getting the car or crews getting near the vehicle?
00:54
Yeah,
00:55
apparently there's some confusion.
00:57
There are two power lines down and two trees in the roadway.
01:00
We are, I guess, just a little bit north of the original call.
01:05
There's another power line down with a concerned citizen.
01:08
We're not with the crash.
01:12
Clear, I'll get a hold of the buckhole.
01:14
I believe that's fair line.
01:15
I'll track them down.
01:19
Clear. Do you have any available fire or anything of that sort of block off this side? I'm going to have to loop around and head alternate from 94.
01:33
Clearview Vice, Autrain Fire is their 16-mile-like truck is coming from the south, and Autrain Fire is coming from the north,
01:40
and the road commission should be heading that way also.
01:45
Okay, clear.
01:46
I'll provide lights on this end, and then when someone who leaves us with lights, I'll loop up 94.
01:52
I mean, tell everybody else, stand down.
01:59
Is this the 60-mile leg brush truck?
02:05
I'm in my personal truck with the lights.
02:10
Clear.
02:11
Christmas pumper is coming from the north.
02:15
There is two trees down, one north of the accident, and then one at the accident.
02:20
MSPs to the north of it, blocked by the other tree and the power line down.
02:27
So if you could stay there with your lights on, that'd be great.
02:35
I advise I do have one a train fire department on the south end in his personal vehicle and the bus truck will be there just a few minutes on the south end of Forest Lake Road.
02:46
Clear?

If you want to advise Upco,
02:56
the pole is completely snapped off on one side of the road.
03:01
And it's right in front of N6581.
03:08
Okay, clear.
03:12
They might be at another line down just south of you, maybe.
03:18
Okay, clear.
03:23
Clear. Clear,
03:27
thank you.
03:29
and also based from shop one, that tree on 94 at the Marquette County line must be more into the Marquette County side.
03:40
Just talk to the driver.
03:42
He threw him the limestone shop and he said he didn't find it.
03:51
Clear. Do you think he could just nose in to Marquette County line just to verify that for us, please?
04:01
Yeah, I'll call.
04:04
Nagani said it was just inside the county, but she did not specify if it was our county, our Marquette County, but it was close to the line.
04:13
She wasn't sure which site it was on.
04:18
Okay.
