I'm going to break out from the crash site here and just kind of go drive around the vicinity.
00:06
See if we can't find it broken down. It sounds like it should be leaking oil or some sort of overheating issues.
00:13
Zero fifty-scent.
00:26
Yes, 011.
00:28
If you've left 8-no, there's a pop sign here at the intersection of Payne Siding Road and Highway 92 is down and struck,
00:35
and a good portion of the bumper to that car is here, but there is no license plate.
00:41
Copy, we're on the line with him now, thanks,
00:43
0.558.
00:47
And if you'll let him know, I'm going to move the sign out of the roadway, so we'll just be on the side of the roadway.
00:59
Copy 058.
01:02
FO9 Delta.
01:05
Go ahead.
01:06
Just advising they have one trooper en route to the stop trying and another en route to the vehicle on Rogers Mesa.
01:14
Okay. 21 still at the crash site.
01:18
I'm not going to be there.
01:20
It's true for three.
01:23
Copy. Your picket.
01:27
That's on 912, right?
01:32
Yes, sir.
01:34
Which way are you headed? I can start making my way up on the opposite, and there you go.
01:40
So I already took Payne Siding up at 3,100, thinking maybe it was a doubleback,
01:47
all the way down 301.
01:53
We've already dropped 3,200 as well.
01:56
So kind of just came to send these back routes here. It sounds like you may have been overheating when he was driving by, like,
02:03
this one extreme motor of a vehicle leaking fluid of some sort when they drove back by the second vent.
02:11
It doesn't sound like they went through Hodnius at all.
02:15
Said he lost around 3,100 roads.
02:21
He said he was behind it so fast that it would be shocked. He should have seen it.
02:25
He continued straight, so we're thinking it broke off the side grip somewhere.
02:33
We can always reach out to the on-call of Hoshka's guy and do if they have it on LCR before the incident or after.
02:40
Yeah, I think that almost is broken down somewhere. I think that's the only way we're going to get a plate.
02:46
S.O.11, this is probably definitely going to be the same crash as it began leaking oil here at the top 5 meters.
03:03
Zero 100.
03:10
One of the troopers just passed in a bit of your way.
