black and... or gray in blue shirt and gray sweatpants and a gray cap.
00:09
Sir, it's him because the clothing doesn't exactly match, but he's got dreads.
00:14
And he just jumped this in to near 23rd street.
00:17
He did not want to talk to me.
00:20
He said near 23rd, we're 51 to you.
00:26
You jump the fence going into Oakwood?
00:31
South,
00:32
heading south behind near 23rd.
00:35
Yeah,
00:39
that's going to be over into Oakwood.
00:41
Alan, if you can go out canal and come back on 21st.
00:47
It's just going to get us so long while we figure this out.
00:54
Manatee, all units north of Signal 100[1], 1-4-31-6 hours.
01:01
The guy I saw was wearing a gray hoodie and had checkered pants on.
01:09
He looked kind of skinny though, but he had dreads and it looks similar to his picture on his David.
01:14
All right, Alan, are you going over to Soakwick from 21st?
01:23
I just go back from my vehicle, I'm taking phone squirrels.
01:27
All right, I'm heading over 25th and 9th in case he takes the back footpath coming back up by Bellamy's Rooming House.
01:39
Uh, the perimeter and K9 coming.
01:45
Kenny, can you advise if that's him?
01:51
I can't 100% say that it's him.
01:53
It just looks similar to him and he had a gray hoodie.
01:59
But he didn't want to talk to me.
02:01
He wanted to give me his name and then he took off running over the fence.
02:05
So,
02:07
I can't say 100%.
02:14
All right.
02:16
If we can't say 100%, then I don't know 54 on K9.
02:22
Yeah,
02:25
it's what it sounds like.
02:27
Then just go ahead and clear signal 100 if you don't need it.
02:30
And if you've got a witness, is it known, is a suspect known to them that we can just do a KPIS?
02:37
Stress fact is known and they did a capious previous, he battered him previously, so we've got all his 43 from that.
02:45
But if we can just get our hands on him, we've got 1015, that's what we're trying to do.
02:49
Kenny just dates where he's at and I'm where I'm out, if Alan goes into Oakwood and let's just see if we can get him before he jumps another fence.
03:00
Just make the decision if you think you have enough to get a canine coming and set a permit or if you're going to actually do a track.
03:06
But we don't want to get somebody in bed if it's not the suspect.
03:10
So I make that decision.
03:12
And if you need to just clear, do the KPS for the guy.
03:15
The original description was Belucha gray baseball.
03:18
It doesn't match the description.
03:25
I think it should give him the 1020 of where I'm at.
03:28
He just didn't want to see him to talk to me.
03:29
It had anything to do with law enforcement.
03:32
We didn't ask the description exactly.
03:35
Yeah, and plus we're not going to be able to dog track if that's just going to be a 13P that just didn't want to talk to you.
03:41
The dog is not going to tell the difference.
03:43
So just go ahead and clear to do the KPIS.
