Tower 11 from engine 7. Tower 11, go ahead. I'm just going to give you a little bit of information. We've got a kid that's stuck up about 20, 25 feet up into a tree. Best angle is going to probably be from the north. The address is 1126 East Latoka. There's an apartment building there. We'll have to go to the back of it. If that doesn't work, we can possibly get it from the Walgreens Park. The Latoka address will work best. I would go ahead and run an emergency until you get close. just to not spook the kid, but he's starting to get a little bit scared and he's moving. We probably need to get him down pretty soon. Message received, 1126 Eastletoko approach from the north. We'll get there to move it again.
