Law enforcement center.
Yes, this is Rosanna Strong.
I'm hearing that there's a voluntary evacuation.
Right.
Now, is that the whole east side of North and South Washington?
Yep, the whole city, they're calling for a voluntary evacuation.
Oh, well, where do we go?
Well, I can't tell you where to go.
They're just saying if you have some place to go, it would be best to leave.
But they're still saying that, like, Red River and the armory are shelters.
Red River.
Red River High School.
High School.
Or the armory up on North 47th Street.
And the armory.
Yep.
The other thing is right now the EOC, the Emergency Operations Center,
has been evacuated because we're getting water here at the police department.
Yeah.
So they've moved them over to the university,
and their phone lights aren't hooked up yet.
So right now we're getting their calls.
So if you could just call the summer back in about 20 minutes,
they will probably have more information.
Okay, thank you.
Yep.
Thank you.
