I live on 2505 13th Avenue South, it's an old apartment building back in Hugo, and there's
been a man, he's nice and clean, he's kind of a younger man, he's carrying like a little
radio or something, you can't understand anything he says, and if he got lost in the shuffle
of this moving around, he's got just a thin shirt on, and he's standing outside by the
road and he walks back and comes in here.
How old is he?
Well I wouldn't say he's more than 30, maybe less.
Okay, what does he look like?
What does he look like?
Yeah.
He's a real pleasant looking man, but when he talks he uses his arms and stuff, and he
don't really answer enough, don't really say enough, he's just waiting for somebody to
pick him up, but you know there's nobody here but just old people, and nobody knows
what to do.
Okay.
Nobody wanted to do nothing, and I said if something's just called it's going to be dark.
Okay, and he's on 13th Avenue?
2505 13th Avenue South, it's not far from the hospital.
Right, right.
Can you describe him to me about how tall is he?
Oh he's a big guy, he's a, oh I'd say he's close to 5'8", 10", 11", whatever, I'm not
very good at telling you.
Okay.
He's medium sized, pleasant looking, he's shaved and clean.
What color hair does he have?
Must be sort of brownish, I don't know.
Do you know what he's wearing?
He sat on it, he changed shirts and I don't know where he went.
He's got like a blue-green shirt on.
You have to know if Mary's still in records.
That was close.
I can stand out in front of somebody if I want to come by and look him.
Oh that's okay, we'll send somebody out.
I just wanted to be sure we could find him.
Pardon?
I just wanted to be sure we could find him.
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay, thank you.
