Is that it?
Okay, they have to transfer as well.
Okay.
Allow for a sit center.
Yes.
250, 250.
Hi, this is the 901 Center in Grand Park.
I need to have you break into a line.
I have a mentally handicapped person that is talking to his, like, social worker.
I have an officer at the door that is trying, he's hard of hearing,
but we're trying to get in so that we can evacuate him because of the flood here.
772-6833.
One moment.
901 Center, please.
We're recommending that you evacuate him.
911, I'm not showing the conversation on that line.
I know that you're having bad weather and flooding with flood policy and being able to go through.
Yeah.
Okay.
10-2, has he come to the door yet?
Yeah, I'll have to see if he'll pick up the line here.
Okay.
Phone ringing.
Pete?
Pete?
Hello, sir?
Hello?
Can you answer your door?
All right, what was that number again?
772-6833.
Yeah, his name is Pete.
I have an officer at the door if we can get him to get to the door to open it.
Hello, Pete?
Hi, is this Pete?
Hi, this is the U.S. West operator.
Are you on the line, Pete?
There's an officer at your door.
Can you open your front door for them?
Pete, go answer your front door.
I'll meet you if my call went through.
There's an officer, there's a police officer at your front door that needs to come in and talk to you.
Operator, I've got to put you on hold. Just a moment.
Law enforcement center?
Yes, I'm trying to get a hold of the Grand Forks county representative at the EOC.
Okay, their lines are being transferred.
We shut down the EOC at the police department.
They're putting the lines up at the university.
Putting the lines up at the university should take them another ten minutes
and they should be taking over these lines if you want to call back.
Or could you just pass the message?
I can't, I can't. I'm so inundated with calls up here. Sorry.
Thanks.
Did you get a hold of him?
Pete, my name is Sue from U.S. West. Can you answer me?
He picked up the line, but he won't respond to us.
Okay, Pete, there's someone at your front door that needs to talk to you.
Can you open the door for me, please?
Just leave the phone off the hook and go open the door so I'll be here if you need anything, okay?
Will you go open your front door?
We can't get Pete to go to the door. We keep calling him and he won't go to the door
and the officer is going to be leaving.
Oh, dang it. Is it really bad in that area?
I mean, is it going to be necessary for him to evacuate before too long anyway?
It could be possible, yeah.
Oh, man.
Do you have somebody in town that can go over there?
I have somebody who has a kindle in the apartment.
Then you better call them and have them go over there.
All right.
Okay.
Well, she's working another job, but I'll get a hold of her before morning.
All right.
Thank you for your help.
Yep.
Sorry.
No problem. Bye-bye.
North, we can come see you.
Operator, we're going to go ahead and let it go.
We're going to try and get somebody to go over there that's got a key.
All right.
Thank you.
Bye.
