I have a set of slides. And I will share the screen. And you will tell me, Kevin, when to advance. Okay. Please department quarterly. I think we can move on from this movement. Okay. So calls for service. That's basically every every time we have an incident, a report of any activity anywhere that a police officer is sent, we make a report of it. It's now called a call for service in our new RMS used to be called a blotter. Now it's a call for service. In the past quarter, uh, quarter two, we had 822 calls for service, uh, which was up from 773 second quarter of last year. So we saw a slight um a slight uptick of calls, myriad of options out of reasons. I don't think there was anything really out of the ordinary that would cause it. It's just slightly more call volume this year than last year. Um I don't think we need to go too much in detail. You'll see a breakdown of the most typical calls we go on from aided calls, uh, alarm responses, auto accidents, both property damage and personal injury. I was happy to see that our auto accidents have dropped from 54 this time last year down to 38, which is which is always nice to see, as well as our personal injury auto accidents went from 10 down to three again uh this year, which is a nice nice thing to see. Uh disturbances, slight uptick there. That's really kind of a no real rationale behind that. Domestic violence calls are down slightly, driving complaints. Uh emotionally disturbed persons, uh, pretty much the same as last year. Hazardous conditions, that's usually any flooding, trees down, things like that. Uh, pretty much the same. Noise complaints are nice to see that they're down. I was a little surprised considering um with 70 memorial. I was expecting to see a little bit more just from the trucks, but that kind of dropped a little bit for us. Uh suspicious person calls, vehicle calls, welfare checks. Anytime someone, usually it's a family member who called welfare check, and that's only heard from in a couple of days. That's usually what a welfare check is any call for concern. That was actually slightly down than last year. Uh Mr. May, you can go ahead. Uh, this is uh patrol staffing and overtime. So this is our overall overtime numbers um for the last five quarters. So second quarter 2025, we were at 1,431 hours of overtime. Uh second quarter this year, we're at uh 974, which is a decrease of 457 hours of overall overtime. I think the main reason for that would be the fact that we are now at full complement. Um it was last July, I think when we hired uh Officer Jones and Balducci. So having everyone having stuff to full staff really kind of helped to decrease not just patrol over time, but over time in general. Um Mr. May, you go to the next slide. This
