Let's see you call on?
00:03
Go ahead.
00:06
One of the troopers responding is checking to see,
00:09
did you want us to handle the crash or just provide traffic control for this and stuff?
00:14
Samoa. 2-16, I just had something look like a smaller vehicle.
00:20
Pass one of our plows up here near 9th and west and then no passing zone.
00:27
I can't catch up to it.
00:32
Poweshiek County from 7990.
00:35
What direction was it gone?
00:39
Is it going north? It may have turned up around 12.
00:45
Okay,
00:47
and four.
00:51
Injuries at all?
00:54
I have not heard.
00:56
I only had one caller.
00:57
Traffic is backed up and it looks like people are around it.
01:00
I'm not sure about the driver in or not.
01:06
Drop it out, thank you.
01:12
I'm stuck in traffic, and no one's getting over.
01:18
Imagine that.
01:25
214, if you go east or west on 12.
01:30
The only vehicle I saw turned way up in front of the plow went west.
01:39
I want to see him actually the accident, I believe.
01:43
If first get off on the
01:45
one ninety one,
01:47
they can actually go back on and continue on past the accident from the east if they just go off the ramp and back on.
01:55
Ten four.
02:01
John 12, I'm on, I'm 23 on scene.
02:03
The semi is completely flipped over.
02:05
Looks like we have additional sine line involved that hit it after it flipped.
02:11
Ten 4.
02:17
Ashley, go ahead.
02:20
My deputy's advice that eastbound traffic can get off the exit and then get back on and they have additional similes that did hit that sunlight that flipped over.
02:30
So just confirming they can merge on from the 191 entrance room.
02:44
Just to confirm this is east found east of the on-ramp, correct?
02:49
Yeah, ten four, they can get off of it off or anything, then get back on.
02:55
Ten four, we'll let it extra personal.
03:00
It'll be 12.
03:03
12.
03:06
Advise 11-star, if they have two records available, that would be great.
03:10
Also,
03:11
we have a separate car that was also involved in this accident,
03:15
but it appears everybody's okay.
03:19
So that black coop actually called in before this accident actually occurred and Bobby was actually on his way to get that black vehicle and then he called back in later and said that this happens.
03:34
Danforth.
03:41
Let's go, Robin.
03:42
Uh,
03:43
corny that attack, Chris.
03:48
11, go ahead.
03:51
Robert King Lincoln, (number withheld).
03:54
This vehicle was struck, nobody's entered.
04:02
And we'll have our troopers.
04:03
Had to this scene, it looks like they're not too far out.
04:05
Ten four.
04:10
For Team, we're eating to push people off the off-ramps at 191.
04:16
They're coming off the off ramp now.
04:18
I'm going to try to get them to go across and get back on versus going north.
04:21
Ten for.
04:28
Southern Drive.

Two-four.
04:51
Two-four. Two-four.
04:59
You know he's holes.
05:00
P-16, I don't have any sign of him down here, but you can see where he's been doing donuts and whipping and sliding around down here on Hamilton.
05:13
So,
05:14
good chance that it's likely him.
05:21
Yeah,
05:22
I went clear over to sunset.
05:25
Couldn't locate anything there.
05:35
Ten four.11. I actually had Bobby Tarran on the phone.
05:38
He was actually coming to get that black veal, so is he able to come get it?
05:44
Negative, not right now.
05:45
It's in the middle of everything else.
05:49
Go ahead.
05:58
I'm at the top of the eastbound off ramp.
06:01
I'm going to see if I can get vehicles to start moving off.
06:06
Tempar.
