Ladder 39 to dispatch, who's the second truck? Ladder 39, it's going to be Tower 20. Copy. Tell them to pull past Ladder 39 and block the 480 West exit from 71 South so we can completely shut down this scene. Ladder 39, understand. Tower 20, rolling. Tower 20 on MVA, I-71 southbound at the I-480 West split.
