R&E Automated Systems and North Manufacturing, I think I could throw one, same by here.

Central Engine One, you can put us in the area, we're still looking.

00:14

Okay, clear.

00:15

Yeah, they came in this R&E Automated Systems North Manufacturing Building Waterflow.

00:23

Quite four copies.

00:27

We didn't know it already automated there's a 255,

00:31

20th Street.

00:33

Yeah, I noticed the numbers were the same here. This was called them by the same company as well, Johnson Controls.

00:40

I'm not sure if they've got their numbers crossed here.

00:44

I'll try and call them back.

00:48

Chief two, engine one.

00:50

We are in the area. All there is here is a park. I believe this is supposed to be a 20th street in the south end.

00:59

Dispatch engine street.

01:01

That's right.

01:05

I'm here on 255 20th Street.

01:08

The name of the business is the same that you just gave for the Gratiot address.

01:13

They did state that they set the alarm off and then reset the system and it went off a second time approximately five minutes apart.

01:20

Corrects with your numbers.

01:22

That would probably justify the time delay in their calls.

01:26

I'm not sure where they came up with a garage and from.

01:34

There's going to be nothing here. You can show Chief 2 and Engine 1 back in service.
