B4 to dispatch. Kobe 4. We're going to need an electrical utility at our location. We have a highway light telephone pole, and we're going to need them to come out. We may have a fire inside of this from an electrical issue. The car backed at the pole. Copy. It's unclear if it's CEI or CPP.

Rescue 2 to B4 on TAC 4. Squad 2. You're en route? Yeah, I'm en route. You need me up there, Squad 2? We do. This car was well involved. There's a victim inside the vehicle. B4, okay. I'm en route. I'll be on scene shortly. You need any other resources there? You need another hook and ladder? No, I saw Truck 20. They should be here shortly. We'll need another pumper, though. I think 38's coming. B4.

This is so sad that this happened! I couldn’t even tell it was a car when I went past it I would think it would be a DOA 😢🥺

@ginababy_x0 yeah I didn’t even know it was a car either it was so burned and melted up. My friend was one of the officers to respond. Unfortunately she was high and this happened. They tried to pull her over before this happened!
