Patrol centre

*I look over to Lidner, who is chiseling away on the report*

'Hey Don, I'm gonna go ahead and clear, I've been on shift for almost 12 hours'

*I key up the mic*

"COPA, 7 portable, show me en route to complex for end of shift"

'Yea, Sorry for keeping you waiting.'
*I turn my attention back to the kid,
'Okay thanks, you can go, and uh if your mom wants to talk to me, uh heres the number to reach me at when im on duty.'
*I hand the kid a card and wave to him. I then turn my attention abck to the kid who his going to the detention center and pick him up and load him into the back of my cruiser. I then pick up the radio from the center console.
"PC-4, Transporting 1 Minor, Dentention Center.'
*I start the engine of the vehicle and begin driving towards the detention center.

*I drive away from the scene, and say to myself*

'Well, I'm sure looking forward to a cold Jeremiah Weed and Water on the rocks'

*I pull into ERT, ready to go home*

*We turn onto Morgans Lane and continue to drive westbound*

'The calm before the storm'

*I say as I take a swig from my coke*

*I go to the patrol car and unlock the trunk and throw my gear in there. I then walk to the drivers door unlock it and sit inside, start it up and drive out of the station, I then pick up the microphone*

"Booth to COPA I will be on patrol, Are there any calls pending?"

*As were driving I notice a van full of people driving with expired tags and a right tail light out*

'Lets pull them over and see what we can find'

*I turn on the lights and we pull over*

"8 to COPA: we will be out with a Blue Ford van on Morgans Lane vehicle will have about five occupants. LPN: 163 NAD"

"Booth to 8, You're a block away from me I'll swing by to assist"

*I hit my lights and ride around the corner I see Dave's car and I pull behind him throwing on my directional lights*

"Booth to COPA show me assisting PC-8 with a traffic stop"

'10-4"

*I begin to type on the vehicles tag into the computer while my partner walks up to the vehicle and retrieve drivers licenses and registration*

*I turn our lights off and turn on our corner steady burn LED's*

*Nathan gets back in the unit and I run the drivers licenses*

'Hey guys nothing coming back, there all clear'

"Booth to COPA show me clear from here continuing patrol"

*I turn my lights off and pull out and patrol, as doing so I see a black mustang fly by me, I speed up and catch up to him as he flies through the red light, I turn on my lights and hit the sirens, he sees them and pulls over*

"Booth to COPA show me off with a Mustang, Florida tags, 765 Bravo Delta Alpha Kilo, my location Morgans Ln. at Chinese District"

*I give the guy a written warning and send them on their way*

*We get back in our unit and I turn off the LED's as we drive off*

'Hey, look at that'

*I say as I notice two people out front of their house fighting*

*We pull up to the scene and I flip on our lights as we get out*

"PC-8 to COPA: show us out on 564 North Twin Road, with a fight in progress"

"Traffic 1 on patrol." I pull out of the station and head toward I-23 to run radar.

'Police, yall break it up now'

*We walk over I take one subject and Nathan takes the other*

'Hey, who called the pigs'

*I look at the guy with the black shirt*

'Nobody did, we were driving by and saw you fighting'

'Well, then buzz off'

*I walk over to the guy in the red shirt*

'Ok, lets see yalls ID's please'

*I get both ID's*

'Nathan, will you run their info while I find out whats going on?'

*I run the plate through my EAT before stepping out of my vehicle and it comes back clean but with priors for speeding, So I step out of my vehicle and walk towards the driver*

'Good evening sir, May I see your license, registration and proof of insurance please?'
'Sure officer' *He reaches in the glove box for his info and he hands it to me*
'Alright I looked on my computer and it showed you had priors for speeding, is this true?
'Yes sir, its fast car'
'I'm sure it is, is there a reason for you to be speeding tonight and flying right through the red light?'
'What light?'
'The one back a block the one you drove right through'
'I didn't see it, sir'
'Right, well I'll be right back' *I walk back to my car run his info and he comes back clean, so I write him a ticket for speeding and for going through the red light and I walk back to inform him*
'Here you go sir, ticket for speeding and for running the light, and here's your info, Have a nice night and watch out for the lights this time' *I walk back to my car and drive to the station*

"Booth to copa show me clear and I'll be out of service on my way to the station"

*I come back from the detention center and begin driving down the street. I start looking at the temp tags on a car and see they are a month over due. I wait for traffic to move so I can pull behind the driver. I see an opening and quickly pull in front of the vehicle. I then wait for traffic to start moving before turing on the takedowns. I type in the temp tags number into the EAT and get information on the registered owner and search his name on the eat
--EAT--
Name: Gustavo, Frank

Assault on a Police Officer (Pending)
Felony Evading (Pending)

--EAT--
*The light turns green and traffic begins moving. I turn on the take downs and turn the siren to manual and press the button a few times, then using the brake and repeating trying to get the drivers attention. I stay behind the vehicle as it pulls onto the shoulder.
"PC-4 Out on traffic, Expired Tags, Requesting Another Unit due to owner's history."
*I sit in my car and turn on the rear amber lights and look behind me for a moment. When I am positive I will not be hit I open the door and go over to the passenger side window.
'License, Registration, and Proof of Insurance.'
'B-but officer, I just bought this car.'
'Uh, no you havent your tags have been expired for 10 days, meaning youve owned this car more than a month, long enough to register your car, so license, registration, and proof of insurance please.'
*The Driver puts his car into drive, and I quickly open the door and lunge at the keys.

'Whats your name?'

'Chris Waters'

*The guy in the Red shirt says*

'That's Drew Patterson'

'Ok Chris, what is going on?'

'Well, he came over to my house and started beating on the door demanding to know why I had slept with his wife.'

'Is this true'

*I say looking at the other guy.*

'Yes'

'Alright, why are you sleeping with his wife?'

'Well, its his ex-wife to be exact'

*I look at both guys for a moment*

'Let me guess, your pissed that he is sleeping with her right?'

'You dang right, thats my woman'

'Hey, shes my girl now buddy'

'How about I beat your *** again'

'You didn't even do it the first time'

*Drew, takes a lunge towards Chris*

'Oh, not this crap again'

*I throw Drew to the ground and Chris backs off*

'Yall, better calm down or I will haul both of you to jail'

*Nathan comes walking back up and states that Drew has warrants for his arrest for failure to appear in court, and that PPD has a car enroute to pick him up*

'Alright, well Chris you can take off, and try to stay away from this guy if possible'

*A PPD car arrives and takes Drew off to the city jail*

"8 to COPA: We will be enroute to back 4"

"PC-8 to PC-4: Were enroute to your location Code 1 advise on your status?"

*I drive by Lidner and see him struggling with the suspect in the car.*

"PC-6 to all units, officer needs help! At 4s location."

*I pull my car infront of the suspects boxing him in incase he breaks free. I jump out and run over to the other side and reach in and put the car in park and pull the e-brake.*

"COPA 6, we jsut got your alert, what's the sitaution there?"

I get the alert on my EAT from PC-6. "Traffic 1 responding code 3 to officer needs help call, ETA 2 minutes." I activate my lights and sirens, and make my way to the scene.

I pull up behind PC-4 in a fend off and get out of my car, jogging over to the suspect vehicle. "Traffic 1 on scene."

*I turn the corner and pull up as Libor puts out the Officer needs help call*

"8 on scene"

*We run over to Lidners side and help him try to pull the driver out*

*I reach over and push the suspect out of the drivers side door and he falls on the ground in front of the other officers.*
"copa, officers attempting to restrain suspect, standby."

'You got it, Nathan lets get out of the way'

'I'm not sure whats going on here'

*I say as I walk to the back of the car and stand*

I stay back, but keep my hand on my holstered baton, just in case. I glance around the scene, but don't see any onlookers or signs of a running passenger.

'Hey Libor what did you see?'

*I say as I pull my mace out and hold it in case we have to spray him*

*I get over to the other side and assist with cuffing the suspect*

"all units, suspect in custody, scene is secure."

'was driving by and saw Lidner struggling with suspect, car rolling, so boxed it in and secured it.'

'Wow, i'm totally confused. I thought you saw something when you told us to standby'

*I put my mace back up*

'Just another day'

*I say with a chuckle*

'Well Boss, if you don't need us we will clear and head back out on patrol'

(sorry, I meant to be talking to COPA.)

'ya, you guys can clear, we should be good here.'

'Nice work guys. I'm headed back out unless you need anything.' I head back to the car and pull out, shutting off my lights as I head to the highway.

'Ah, lol ok I gotcha now boss'

*I get back in my car*

"PC-8 COPA clear scene, back on patrol. Any calls holding?"

'I requested an additional unit in the first place due to his prior history, and he lived up to it. He's out on bail right now, so he'll definatly be back in a cell today. Boy Thought I was gona go on a ride with him.'

*We pull into the parking lot to the station and back into our spot*

"8 COPA show us out of service"

*We both walk into the station*

*I turn on to the Interpass and head toward Truitt*

"PC-8 is available, any calls holding?"

"At this time negative, keep an eye on Japanese Disrict Road though"

"6 clear."

*We slowly make my way over that way*

"8 copies COPA"

*I turn the radio up a little and change it to my favorite radio station*

'Now, this is better.'

*I say to myself as I stop at a redlight*

'What do you think of that car next to us'

*I say to Nathan pointing to a car that is all rusted up and seems to barely be running.*

*I take the perp back to my car and read him his rights.
I then set my status to unavailable on the eat and pick up the radio.
"PC-4 out transporting 1."
*I begin to make my way back to the station.

*We continue driving*

'What do you say we pull up next to that Japanese food stand and see what we see'

*We come to a halt and I take my seat belt off*

'I'm going to go get us some food'

*I go in and come back about six minutes later with some food*

*After submitting my report I return to my patrol vehicle and start the engine back up. I pull out of the parking lot and head towards the trulit area when I see a deputy struggling with a suspect who has his hand on the deputy's fire arm.
"PC-4 Requesting Assistance at Peach Road."
*I jump out of my car and draw my baton and run over to the suspect and hit him in the legs with it which causes him to fall. I then put my knee into the suspect's back while the deputy places his cuffs on the man. I help him lift the suspect up and help him put the suspect into the cruiser.
'Everything ok?'
'Yea, Thanks for your help, damn people.'
*I get back in my cruiser and pull onto the side of the road and sit there for a moment.

*I switch seats in the patrol car & start messing around with the mdt & pull up the map with avl (automatic vehicle locator)*
I hear Lidner call out for officer assistance, dave is just walking back up to the car.
*I look at the map & see lidner's patrol car is just at the corner of trulit rd & peach rd*
dave gets back into the car & shuts his door
*I throw the car in drive & hit the lights & siren & take off*

dave: 'what is going on?'
me: 'lidner called out for assistance on peach rd, his avl is putting him on peach rd just off of trulit rd'
dave: 'ok'
"PC-8 to dispatch, responding to PC-4's location"
siren wailing as I turn the corner, I see a deputy & lidner on top of some guy finishing cuffing him
*I place the car in park, pick up the mic & key up*
"PC-8 dispatch, show me on scene, PC-4 has 1 in custody, code 4"
*I get out of my patrol car & walk up to lidner & the deputy*
'you guys alright? I came to play but it looks like you got all the fun stuff done already, dang' while I chuckle
*I grab the suspect up & place him in the back of the deputy's patrol car*

(That scene was cleared already.)

'Alright Nathan let's head back to the Japenese district'

*I put my hat back on the dash*

'i heard that there has been an increase of people moving into the area might be worth checking out. Never know might get some good collars out of it.'

*I tip my hat to McIntyre and leave the suspect to the Sheriffs Dept. And Resume my patrols.
"PC-4 Available."

**PC-8 to PC-4: If you want you can head over to the Japanese District with us**

*I type into the EAT as we come to a stop light.*

'So, this is turning out to be an interesting day after all.'

*I open my food and begin to eat it*

*I read the message from PC-8
I type into the EAT
--EAT--
PC-4 Joining 8, in Japenese Dist.
--EAT--
*I make a U and begin heading in the direction of 8.

**I heard that there have been a lot of people moving in and out of this area so we might catch something interesting**

*I type another message to PC-4 and send it to him*

*I get out onto the road, grab my mic, and key it up*

"COPA, PC-7, show me out on patrol"

*I switch the radio over to the car-to-car channel*

"PC-8, PC-7, whats the lay of the land over there in the Japanese part of town? Maybe between you, me, and Lidner, we can get a dragnet going in that area?"

* I turn from the Interpass onto the far (200 block) end of Japanese District Road, and pull up alongside one of the many food stands there, and get a to-go order of Miso soup, some Tempura shrimp, and an order of Yakitori. I talk to the owner while his wife makes my order*

'How are things in this neighborhood, my friend? We've been hearing that lots of new people are moving in'

Oh yeah, they all coming over here now. Earthquake and tsunami send many here. We been here long time though, we see lots of street racing, the kids.

'Yeah, lots of kids want to imitate Fast and the Furious and street race, and they get caught, or worse. If you see the kids racing out here, make sure to call us and let us know so we can handle it'

*His wife hands me a bag with my order, the owner decides not to charge me for my drink, so I get in the car, and pull up the block so I don't block the food stand, and I start to eat*

*As I begin going around the japenese district I see a truck double parked, blocking traffic.
"PC-4 to 8, Got a Double parked truck, uh gona try n find the owner, 4 Busy."
*I turn on the rear amber lights on and step out of my pc. I then approach a bystander
'Uh you know who's truck that is?'
'Yea the man who go into alley.'
*I point to one
'That one?'
'Ya'
'How long has the truck been there?'
'A couple minutes.'
'Ok, thanks.'
*I walk back to my PC and type into the EAT.
--EAT--
^No Assistance Needed, GOna issue a ticket.^

--EAT--

--EAT--

"8 to 7: The Japanese district is about 5 to six blocks wide and 5 to six blocks tall."

*I finish eating my lunch and throw away the trash*

'I'm sick of all this rain'

*I grab my hat and my high visibility jacket*

'Lets, take a walk down some of these alleys and see if we can find anything'

"PC-8 to COPA PC-4 and PC-7 we will be out of portable"

'ok'

*I pull the patrol car to the side of the road & place the car in park*
I notice some kids in the alley trying to pry open a window to a building, they dont notice us
'hey dave, catch this, those kids are trying to pry open a window with a stick'... I say with a chuckle

*I grab my mic & key up*
"PC-8 subject check x2 juvenile male's trying to pry open a window to a business with a stick"
*I grab my hat & put it on, I open my door & exit my vehicle*
'dave lets just walk up behind them & scare them lol'
*walk down the alley quietly & get right up behind them*
Me: 'Evening boys'
the boys turn around & drop the stick
Me: 'what you boys doing?'
boys: 'nothing sir'
Me: 'really do you expect me to believe that? come on do I look that stupid?'
boys: 'um'
Me: 'no I am not, where do you boys live? how old are you?'
boys: 'we live corner of 2nd ave & boarder rd, I am 10 & he is 9'

"6 backing 8, code 1."

'Well look what I found'

*I say pointing to the stick*

'I wonder how that got there. Interesting isn't it Nathan'
