510, 150 from his last arrest, 5W squad. You got cut out. Say it one more time. 510 by 150, and that's 15 from his last arrest, squad. Alright, 10-4. Male, Hispanic, dark-complected, his hair is like in a bushy ponytail and a bun, black hoodie. He was 150 pounds from the last arrest. That's all we have for now.

make sure we check them well, make sure they don't walk out with a weapon or anything. Anybody that comes out of the building. 10-4, for anybody coming in and out of the apartment complex, just make sure and check any book bags or check them coming out so we know that they're not coming out with a weapon. 460. 460. Any males coming out of that building that would walk down around to that 510?
