And Sam 1, just curious, anybody who's in charge of the explodey bits has been advised and they're coming out for this? Yeah, that's right, and they're here going to different places to try and figure this out.

Charles 12. Go ahead. The whole block is out, and per fire, there's a pretty decent safety risk with this thing, so we're going to be blocking off northbound. Alright, copy. The beginning and end of that traffic, the whole block is out, and you're blocking northbound and northgate. What was the middle part from fire? Fire said there's a pretty decent explosion risk that this is causing, and there's a large radius that we need to evacuate.

Are you able to get us some pictures and enlarge them? It’s hard to see through the video.
