EXCLUSIVE: Sources say Joe Biden suffered a neurological event before suddenly leaving Las Vegas

All three recordings span a period of a few hours and are untimestamped, so it is difficult to get exact time ranges from them. Two of the clips, each about four minutes long, are general channel clips where LVMPD was coordinating additional units (ie units that were not involved in the protective detail) that were used to shut down traffic and secure the routes after the sudden change of plans. . The third, the event channel for officers involved in the protective detail, is about 43 minutes long. We share the full audio here so readers can listen for themselves.

In the two four-minute clips, officers are asked to respond to Code 3, meaning in an emergency response stance.

Here's the first one:

And the second

Although this is called an “expedited” clip, it is the 43-minute long clip.

About 21 minutes into the clip, one of the agents asks if another is available for a phone call, and the next agent says, “For everyone on the radio, they're on hold right now for something related to the president.” . instruct officers on the detail to allow some traffic through the intersections while they wait.

Shortly thereafter, the security detail is informed:

“For everybody on the radio, right now POTUS is 421. He's seen, so we're kind of waiting to see how that's shaping up. So, for everybody's knowledge, he's 421 right now; Just we're trying to figure out what's going on and we'll go from there.”

Code 421 is a sick or injured person, according to LVMPD code sheet.

After that, there is a hectic 20 minutes of coordination as the protective detail quickly moves its resources from the route between Lindo Michoacan and the MGM Grand, where Biden was scheduled to speak, to secure a route from Lindo Michoacan . All units were again asked to respond to code 3.
