Mike 5'10. 5'10. We're still 10, 15, we're in route to the county. That's my back. In the area of the U. 1.58 southbound, standby for all the records of a CIPA, pursuing a vehicle brake.
00:28
In the area 158 southbound, Pennsylvania is pursuing a black Ford. Pennsylvania is Zebra, Victor Robert 249. Zebra, Victor Robert 249. Passing the 158 southbound speeds at 80 miles per hour, unknown reason and pursuit. Again, any unit in the area, police requesting assistance with pursuit 1126. Back at 522, can you get a reason? Asked they want spikes? That's problem.
00:57
MAC-127. I'll head that way, but I'm not going to be involved until we have a reason. That's probably. This came in, not state police, Green County. It's going to be one of the local agencies that I'm on public service with a dispatch center at this time. I can fix 41. Okay.
01:26
Fire 10. All right, County. 127.522, believe it's possibly going to be a black Ford Ranger. The reason for pursuit was failure to stop when they initiated a traffic stop. 24. 1927 made our reason to pursue.
01:54
They wrecked out of my cart stops while I says to that. That copy. I also at 522 I inquired about the spike strips and he couldn't advise he couldn't copy his unit's traffic once he came into West Virginia.
02:12
Maca 522, are they given another location? I believe he exited off of the 155. It's going to be green regional. They're heading out Chaffin Road at this time. Simple. Macon 1-10. Are they still actively pursuing them?
02:36
I believe that's a formative. Obviously, took the first ride off Chaffin Road, we're still attempting to get further from their dispatch. Okay, if we don't have a reason for a stop, advise them to terminate. McA-Wonten, advise them to terminate. We'll head that way, but we're not chasing a car with this traffic.
03:03
I copied when you advised the first time or attempting to tell their dispatch at this time. Okay, I apologize. Back on 522. 522. The two lines they took the first right off the chapel.
03:25
We had the officer on public service. He wasn't making any sense. He said they got off the 155, headed out Chaffin Road. These days, he thought they made a right on the 119 north. He only wanted to stop them due to them hauling an air compressor in the back, and then they fled, right? That's all I need, thank you. He had made reference to my own park, and he was confused about his location. He was advised to terminate, correction, terminate.
