(name withheld). I'm sitting here, (name withheld). I'm just to keep you advised. We're getting two more calls for trash fires, one at 770 Union and one at 4L in Fairment. So this was a full follow car. That was a fear we had when I was speaking to a little bit of a five word that this would be potentially as an arson. So if you could send me a call out there and then I'll meet them. One. That's okay. Which one do you want to start out? I guess my sister asked and then I'll go ahead and I'll swing past 700 union. And then we'll see which one they go too far somewhere with some of the other one. Received. What unit answered out? 1616. Received. So 1616, if you see a black male, I think they had a black T-shirt on and either about jeans or color pants, and he's out there filming it. Go grab him and get his information because he was out for him in the last one sale. One sex receipt. 16-03? 16-03. I think we're the numbers over here.
