afternoon, Unit 7 helped a lady get her car trunk open after she locked
her purse with the keys in it in the trunk, Unit 37 changed a flat for
a lady& Unit 7 killed a snake. A theft was reported to a Reserve Sheriff
Deputy and an accident was called in on the CH 9 then was reported to
the Reserve Sheriff Deputy so he could call it in (East -By -Pass &
University Dr.).
