3.13D honkers. 1013. So I'm 84 at outside Cumbolino. Looks like it might have been a truck that caught the guy wire that holds the poles, that holds attention on them. Anyway, it's ripped down. It's part of the pole is on the sidewalk. And this guy wire is... low, so I'm going to need police for traffic control on Kimball Avenue by Yonkers Avenue, and I'm definitely going to need Connoisse to get out here as soon as possible. 7-4-813, so at 366 Kimball is a possible truck that caused the guide wire that holds the tension between the poles. It's ripped down apart the pole, so part of it is on the sidewalks and the wide, the guide wire is dangerous, though. You're requesting 15 for traffic control at Kimball and Yonkers Avenue and Karnett to respond. And I'm sorry, I don't know if I'm interested in what you said that people are live wires, like primary wires as well. So right now, this is just like a solid cable that spans from pole to pole. Going across Kimball, it's only about eastby high. There's another one that's down the street, but that one could be in contact with power lines. I just can't see because there's trees this, so I'm assuming that it's live. And that's in the roadway, so that's why I kind of need to shut down. That's a lot of content can get you. 313 for the information. We'll relay it to the officers as well as 17. I'll try to see if I can get you an EPA for them. 3-1-3-10-4.
