I don't know which 20 is, but I've got a bunch of juveniles wearing all black over here near this vape shop at Richmond and College.
00:16
I was going to try to get one more person to come and get out with them.
00:19
All right, I'm at Melvinia's in Wittaker, so I'm not close, but I'll start heading that direction.
00:24
You put the one over there at Rick's my opponent, Ellie?
00:26
And one of them saw me and took off running off the direction, but the other two tried to pretend like they didn't see me.
00:33
So I was going to try to circle back around on and whenever I got someone else over here.
00:37
All right. Yeah, I'll start heading your direction.
00:39
6-1. I'm in Richmond a big night.
00:41
I'm probably able to look closer.
00:42
Where do you say Richmond College?
00:43
10 4. I'm going to come around the backside, back up college and try to sneak up on them.
00:48
They walk behind the business whenever I drove by.
00:50
Were they north-south or Richmond or east way from college?
00:53
There behind the business at the Smokers' Cave.
00:57
When they saw me, it looked like they were walking up college, and then they walked back behind there.
01:03
Okay, gotcha.
01:04
One of them saw me and pretty much was about to start running.
01:08
So I'm sure when I kept turn around on, from behind, turn on my lights, one of them might run.
01:13
You got these deals?
01:14
They were all hanging out inside that parking lot, city ordinance.
01:18
Mr. Easter, could you go ahead and storm you suspicious at Richmond College? Tenfold.
01:23
I'm about to turn on the college.
01:32
And for just letting you know they took off somewhere, but they didn't run across Richmond because I sat there for two or three minutes waiting on them to run from the business.
01:42
So I'm about to go down college and see if I see him walking.
01:45
Take their minutes to the apartments.
01:47
74, like I said, I said, I said right there on Richmond, wait.
01:50
Just turned on the Richmond from Summer Hill, if I'm heading the direction.
01:53
That looks like they did any damage to the business, but there's somewhere over here because, like I said, I sat on Richmond and I came up Weaver, and they were already gone.
