You're on 122nd at Torrance, correct? Because I'm getting a ticket over there. Yeah, it's all about related. Coming in through 117th, go all the way to Gargill, all the way to the tracks. Do you see this guy over there? Yeah, 10-4, we have him in custody right now, we're going for him. Alright, 0709.

Alright, so we got a male, unstable, walking down, and you said down the tracks, possibly by 122nd and Torrance? Probably right here by Gargill, which is 100th and also we're going to try 117th and just east of Torrance.
