Communications, may I help you?
Yes, is there any way we can try and find where our son is?
He's been sandbagging since about 10.30.
When they called for an emergency at Riverside last night, he went.
And nobody's seen him. I know he's okay.
But we just want him to call home.
I've been trying to get the radio stations and they're so busy with other things.
Is there any way through the police department we can have someone look for a vehicle
Vehicle might be pretty tough.
I don't know what you want to go with.
Tom Zick, Z-I-C-K.
He's a UND student.
Hang on just a second, okay?
Okay.
Okay. All right, how tall is he?
About 6'1", 6'2".
About 230 pounds.
He would have a red and black plaid, no, he's got a white t-shirt, sweatshirt on, turned inside out.
Wait a minute here.
Okay.
White sweatshirt.
Turned inside out. He's got probably a jean jacket.
He grabbed a red and white, I believe Polaris stocking cap.
Red and white Polaris stocking cap.
Okay, what I can do is give it out, see if anybody's seen them down by the Riverside area.
Well, and if anybody can, they've been making some announcements for kids to call home
just because they've been out sandbagging for months.
But I don't know if there's any other way to get ahold of them.
There probably isn't. There probably isn't.
I'll try and give it to the guards down by Riverside.
They're doing evacuations down there now, so hopefully they'll come across them.
I'm sure he gets caught in that and he's busy, but we would just like to know.
Okay.
Bye-bye.
