If you have another car available, have them block Traffic Academy and Grand, please. I don't want no cars coming down this way. Okay, give me one second.

Sam 8 Charlie. Sam 8 Charlie. Ma'am, whenever you can free up some 8th district vehicles, you're going to need, definitely need at least one car to block off the intersection at Grant and Academy. There's another woman down here who just tree landed on her vehicle. She's shaken up. She's okay. Her car is pretty wrecked. Someone need another car out here to at least handle the accident. Okay.

It's messier up that you killed that tree and wrecked the car. Have some consideration

Does anyone know if the tree has been removed and Academy Rd northbound is open? Need to know if I can get to Archbishop Ryan in the morning, or should I find an alternate route?
