734. 734. Yeah, there's a downed wire in the alley here. It's smoking. It's a live wire, so if you can let combat know. The fire department put some garbage in, so it's kind of blocked off, but there's also a tree down back here. Alright, 10-4, tree and a live wire. We will call Streets and Sand and come in.

2 has the poles, so we got power lines, primary lines on the ground. Nothing's arcing inside, nothing's on fire. We're going to leave 4th Street at 8517. And, yeah, combat's going to need to know that two of these poles ripped off. There is nothing on fire, nothing arcing.82, 8517, message received. Engine 116, 116.

I know they're busy right now, but if you've got combat coming out to this address, you're going to have to step it up. Emergency. The pole is on fire. It's growing below the junction with 3 and 4 on the north.
