November 6, 2001 - 4:25pm - Unit #220 was heading north on I-270 when he came across a vehicle stopped in the fast lane on southbound I-270 between Dougherty Ferry and Big Bend Blvd. 220 got off at Dougherty Ferry, turned around, and went south on I-270 to the scene. There was a truck that stopped behind the vehicle that was "stalled" and both were blocking the fast lane causing a backup. After talking to one man and determining that no accident had occured, 220 said the man could leave. 220 then checked on the status of the man in the car. It turned out the man simply hit the retaining wall and blew out a tire. 220 then contacted his dispatcher (from work) and asked him to call Kirkwood Police and advise them of the situation. Des Peres Police eventually responded within ten minutes and the driver escaped the highway by driving his car over to the right shoulder without incident.

She eventually felt comfortable knowing that 220 would not do anything "funny". Although she still felt a little reluctant to have him (220) change the tire, she asked if he would do her a favor instead. The woman asked 220 if he would call her daughter and advise her of the situation. 220 went to the gas station on Big Bend and called the daughter. Unfortunately, she was not there, but the daughter's boyfriend was. As luck would have it, the daughter had just left to go looking for her mother about the time 220 called. 220 then hung up and drove back to the scene, unsure of what to do next. Within roughly ten minutes, the daughter showed up and all was taken care of. 220 advised the mother to call Kirkwood Police and let them know that the car would be dealt with in the morning. Both mother and daughter thanked 220 for his efforts and went on their way home to St. Charles.

The lady explained to 220 that the man was trying to get to his home (near Grand and Arsenal in St. Louis City about 10 miles away). She asked 220 if he and 65 could show the man the way to Grand and Arsenal St. So 220 and 65 drove along with the mortorist (65 in front of him and 220 behind him) all the way to Arsenal Street.
