- The clerk of a gas station called
in saying that her outside bathroom
facility, the men's side, has been locked
for roughly 2 and 1/2 hours.
It only locks from the inside, and she suspects that somebody
is inside of that restroom.
It's unknown if they're sleeping or if it's somebody in need.
So we're going to go-- go check it out and see what we have.
They got a key? - No.
Locked from the inside.
She said [inaudible].
- If it's locked from the inside,
but they've got a key right here--
- She didn't have it.
I don't know.
He put a little bit of [inaudible]..
Somebody is in there obviously.
[shaking]
- Only fear is it's going to be a heroin overdose in there.
- That's what I'm thinking.
- We're not getting any response from inside.
The clerk says it's been locked for a good two, two and a half
hours.
Hopefully if somebody is in there,
they're just sleeping soundly.
But my fear is that it's going to be a--
an overdose of some type.
So we're going to find a means to make entry,
probably utilizing the fire department, and their tools,
and see what we have.
- Is someone in there?
- It's either empty or somebody that's no longer living--
or very deep sleeper, hopefully, empty or a very deep sleeper.
- And it-- it can be locked from the outside.
- They don't have a key.
- Does another manager or somebody else
that works here have the key?
- No.
[shaking]
, it's probably going to be an OD
in there if there is somebody.
- I know.
I want some-- I don't want to break my knife.
I want like a screwdriver.
- Break their door, nobody's going to be in there.
- Hopefully.
I'd rather a broken door to be empty than break a door
and find somebody.
- They believe somebody to be in there, no response for about
two, two and a half hours.
- Did they see someone go in there, or they don't know?
- They're just expecting somebody in there.
- They have the key inside, right?
- They don't.
They can't find it.
[police radio chatter]
[music playing]
Y'all got a [inaudible],, just in case?
- That's the key?
- I'm sorry.
[laughing]
[inaudible]
- Might have had it before.
- Probably.
- Empty?
- Empty.
Which is good.
I'd rather it be empty and a broken door than nobody
being in there.
- Well, management probably locked it.
[police radio chatter]
- Well, then somebody knew where the key was.
- I'm so sorry.
- No, I mean.
- Sorry about your door.
- No, thank you.
It's OK.
I'm just glad nobody's in there dead.
- She's pretty adamant that no one locked the door
from the outside, but obviously, someone
had to of, because there's no one in the bathroom.
Which is a good thing.
You know, we kind of have an opioid epidemic happened here
a while back, and we were hoping that that's
what we were not going to see.
- I'd rather have a damaged door with nobody
inside than a damaged door and to have somebody deceased,
or in need of help inside.
So a door lost tonight, but nobody lost their life,
and that's always a good thing.
