he might cut around the side there by 470 on the interstate, just say you're aware.
03:53
Copy.
03:57
94 to 92.
04:04
Did he go left or right after coming up the hill?
04:10
Like a diagonal,
04:12
not straight up towards Bethlehem,
04:15
more out towards 42,
04:17
but on a right or a southern leading path.
04:22
I'm not 100% sure where you went when you got to top the hill.
04:25
It flitens out and can't see him anymore.
04:28
I'm just on foot checking in that area.
04:31
All units, just be advised, PD got to the top of the hill, lost visual.
04:36
At the Palf of the Hill.
04:38
They can get what street they're on or close to.
04:43
So if I had to guess,
04:46
we're probably about three-fourths of the way off I-470 in that direction.
04:56
He's advising three -fourths of the way on I-470 section in that area.
05:07

05:14
Did he go up towards the Howard Long or up towards Lillo?
05:20
94-092. Do you think we'll be able to do a track or do you think it's been contaminated?
05:27
Stand by, we'll check.
05:30
We may be able to.
05:32
I just don't know a good starting point.
05:36
I know we'll respond.
05:39

05:47

05:49

05:51
I'm the only one up on the hill, so...
05:55

05:57
more on the north side.
05:59
Got 4-8, 16 and 4.
06:04
Good.
06:05
This is quite the hill.
06:07
I'm pretty windy coming up here, so this gentleman's probably better down somewhere up here.
06:14
You are with 94, K-94 current.
