In this particular call, um, I was en route to something and I heard the entire call start to finish, and this was a call that I've heard many, many times. And able to hear the way the call developed, all the resources being called. We had the right personnel, we had the right equipment, we had containment, we had communication, evacuation. And like so many times, we've had calls like this in the past that have ended in a safe resolution and taking the individual into custody. Sometimes you just can't control everything.
