About 45 minutes ago there was a call:

Male, about 25, lying in the street, blue.

I'm not making this up. Also, many "sick person" calls, sickness unspecified, or sometimes "breathing problem". It will be nonstop calls, followed by a lull, and then the calls start up again. (They aren't all sick people, just heard an "animal bite" ) .
