Law enforcement center.
Whoa, I got the wrong number.
Calling ELC?
Yeah.
What's going on is the ELC has moved.
They're in a process of moving to UND.
And so their lines are down for the next 10 to 20 minutes.
Not down, but we're taking their calls.
But just call back the same number and you'll get them in 10 to 20 minutes.
I suppose you wouldn't know anything, would you?
Probably not.
I'm a police officer, but I just don't know a lot about what they're doing.
I'm asking about the Kennedy Bridge.
I haven't heard anything as far as – do you want to hang on just one second?
Yeah.
Okay.
The Kennedy's still open at this time.
And there's no shelter right now virtually?
Not right now, but it's a possibility because the river's getting so high.
Okay.
It's about 20 minutes now.
Yep.
All right.
