In response to Ace's, "Hey, can you call up our 'Wagon buddies & tell 'em to get ready to recieve this crowd?" ...
Block changes his position so that Mr. X and Lady S are not in line of sight of his electronics, then he boots up his "Grunyon" commlink. When it's up, he places someone senior on the Doc Wagon team upstairs that he knows will pick up.
After identifying himself, he continues, "I was stuck in the loading docks of 601 Lexington for a bit, but the situation down here has changed. Whatever effect had this mob hostile and locked down appears to have broken. I've got ... oh, I dunno, maybe a few dozen dazed and confused non-combatants, now. Can you arrange a protocol with the on-scene authorities, so they can get out without getting shot? Tell them your team has good news."
Block would love to send some video proof along with his claims - but any shot he picks to send absolutely must not have any visible Mr. X, Lady S, Ace, Block himself, identifiable bug guts, or personally identifiable features of any of the mob of people.
Maybe an IR-only scan of the people disarming would suffice as proof.
Once we get the protocol from up top, obey it to the letter. Send up non-threatening groups into the waiting arms of the NYPD, Doc Wagon, et cetera.
