We're still missing coverage on Pratt.
00:48
There's a cruiser there at Pratt if they could just turn their overheads on.

01:07
We're on 50 patterns for your team.
01:09
All right, we picked them back up.
01:13
It should be a male, no shirt,
01:16
shorts.

Okay, direct to the area. There is back here.

01:32
neon yellow shorts,
01:34
look like no shoes.
01:43
Commandant, I have a bigger unit that's headed toward the alley now. They're going to move the cruiser up and give the announcements for him to surrender.
01:55
I don't know if this alley runs all the way through.
01:58
He's starting to work eastbound again, south and east.
02:04
Clear, commandant to him that Baker car, get on your PA anyway and order him to head towards your direction to the east, seasonal surrender.

I have a wand to the key unit, maybe go to 50th Street mid-block.

I think it might be able to get you in there.
02:52
Good.
03:00
Adam 11, do we know how old this kid is?
03:05
Is he responding to announcements all?
03:20
And one of the key gate, it looks like near Evans St has a long backyard that runs into the west.
03:26
He's underneath a tree cover there.
03:30
It's an open backyard with the house to the south as well.
03:38
T95, clear.
03:40

Speaker 26 portable, I'm mid-block,
03:59
50th in Evans,
04:00
and then Baker 26 is, the other Baker 26 is back at the original call location.
04:07
All right, he's on the east,
04:10
east towards the backyard near Evans. He keeps hiding from you guys. So he's hiding, I believe, it's a thick tree underneath there. So I believe he's hiding underneath a fig tree near Evans on the southwest corner of the residents.
04:30
Keynes if I was able one,
04:32
could she have anything in his hands?
04:36
He's coming out between the garage, like maybe a house or a garage near Evans.
04:48
Or you hide underneath another tree there.
04:54
He's between near Evans, is the last spot we had him.
05:03
We watched them physically use some kind of stick with a metal object on the end of it to physically slow it ramble. When he was missing it was shooting sparks, it then on the concrete.
05:16
That would be a garden hoe.
05:23
All right, it's just on the west side of the chimney height behind the push, I think.
