Rescue group, Engine 25, Firefighter. Go ahead, 25, Firefighter. I'm right next to him here. If I break some of these branches off this small tree, looks like he should be able to walk out. I copy that. Just confirming we can cancel the helicopter. Helicopter. Can you repeat? You were broken on that. That is....

Rescue teams are considering using a 300-foot rope to reach the patient, possibly canceling helicopter assistance.

Truck 20 from IC on 9 Bravo. Yeah, just pulling you in on our plan. Looks like we're going to use tickets, and with the 300-footer, we'll be able to reach the patient, no problem. Truck 20 from IC, are you telling me to cancel the copter? Just letting you know on our plan, that could be plan B or plan A, depending on what you want to do with the helicopter.

The helicopter is now overhead, ready to assist as needed in the rescue operation.

I can assign you Truck 20 and Engine 36 to assist.

You can Google the address and see the Canyon behind the apartments.

There is a small „canyon” terrain behind these apartments

lhaggerty001Oct 13 at 9:46 AM

Most likely in one of the canyons, but I don’t know. I just read that off of the description of this rescue.
