America, starting as a trainee police officer

Chapter 115 Fugitive Prisoners

Equipment collection point.

Li Wei and several other newbies are collecting their equipment.

Suddenly, everyone in the police station started running towards the garage.

"What happened?"

Nolan looked at the police officers who had been mobilized.

"A prison van full of inmates was involved in an accident on its way from the courthouse to the prison!"

Bishop, who was passing by, stopped and answered Nolan's question.

Upon hearing this, Li Wei quickly grabbed his equipment and ran towards the garage.

A truckload of prisoners might just yield some rewards you've never seen before.

Soon, Li Wei drove a police car and followed the main force to the scene of the accident.

As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a prison guard with blood streaming from his head walking unsteadily toward them.

"Hey, what happened?"

Superintendent Gray, who was leading the group, quickly went over and helped the prison guard up.

A coyote ran in front of the bus, Graham swerved the steering wheel, and the bus overturned.

Seeing that the prison guard was conscious, Gray quickly continued to ask, "How many people were in the vehicle?"

"Twenty prisoners and two guards."

"Have any prisoners escaped?" This was Gray's biggest concern.

"There should be." The prison guard wasn't sure either.

He had barely finished speaking when he collapsed and fainted.

"Hey! Hey! Hey! Come down here!"

Gray caught the prison guard and called for help.

"Bishop, go and count the number of people!"

After speaking, Gray picked up the walkie-talkie: "Dispatch center, this is 7-L-20, at the accident scene. I'm declaring a city-wide state of high alert. Multiple emergency medical teams and helicopters are needed. Dispatch all available officers from Lampard's North Hollywood unit to the scene!"

"Search the area around the accident scene—within a ten-minute walk."

Meanwhile, Li Wei and Nolan arrived near the overturned prison van.

A prisoner dressed in prison clothes is lying on the ground.

Li Wei went over and touched the other person's neck.

There is no pulse.

"He's dead."

After confirming the death, he immediately got up and drew his pistol.

He and several other rookies and instructors slowly approached the prison van.

"I see some movement around the ten o'clock position." At that moment, Nolan noticed movement in the bushes not far away.

"Go check it out, be careful." Lopez didn't look at Nolan; her and Levi's eyes remained fixed on the prison van.

Upon hearing this, Nolan nodded and ran towards the bushes.

Nolan had just left when Lopez gestured for Levi to join her in inspecting the prison van.

Li Wei nodded, pressed his gun down, and was the first to enter the prison van.

Inside the prison van were prisoners and guards who had been injured during the rollover.

The place was a mess.

"Don't move!" Lopez shouted as he saw the group of prisoners lying on the ground.

She then approached the prison guard: "The ambulance is on its way. Could you tell me about the accident?"

"Seven prisoners escaped. They took my keys and my service weapon. They escaped through a hole in the windshield."

Upon hearing this, Lopez quickly pulled out his walkie-talkie: "Attention all officers, seven prisoners have escaped from the bus. At least one of them is carrying a firearm."

After giving her report, she looked at the prison guard and said, "Hang in there, we'll get you out of here soon, understand?"

While Lopez was communicating with the prison guards, Levi was observing the prisoners inside the vehicle.

Unfortunately, no warnings were given to these prisoners who did not escape.

In other words, the system will not give a reward for arresting them.

After checking the inside of the car, Li Wei and Lopez returned outside.

"Wait, where's Nolan?"

Li Wei looked around and realized that Nolan had not returned yet.

Upon hearing this, Lopez took out his walkie-talkie: "Officer Nolan, please respond if you hear me."

There was no response on the radio.

"Something's not right, I'll go check it out." Li Wei sensed something was wrong.

"I'll go with you." Lopez also felt that it was strange that Nolan hadn't returned for so long.

The two walked one after the other into the bushes that Nolan had just entered.

In the thicket of trees.

Nolan is engaged in a brutal hand-to-hand combat with a prisoner.

"Do not move!"

When Li Wei went over to investigate the commotion, he saw Nolan lying on the ground, pointing a gun at a prisoner who was only a little over a meter away from him.

"Nolan! Are you alright?"

Lopez arrived at that moment.

"I'm fine!"

Without saying a word, Li Wei took out handcuffs and went up to cuff the prisoner.

Arresting a prisoner resulted in the system giving me a [small red bottle], which is better than nothing.

Nolan lowered his gun-wielding arm and began to gasp for breath after seeing Levi handcuff the prisoner.

The prisoner had just nearly strangled him with the iron chain in his hand.

This has left Nolan still reeling, and he's still having some difficulty breathing.

At that moment, Nolan turned around and looked at the body of a prison guard lying in the grass not far away.

This is the prison guard he encountered just before being attacked by this prisoner.

The other person was still alive at the time.

Unfortunately, the prison guard breathed his last after exchanging only a few words with him.

For someone as empathetic as Nolan, the death of a person in front of him would cause him great psychological distress.

"Are you alright?" Li Wei asked, noticing that Nolan seemed a bit off.

"I'm fine."

Not far from where the car overturned.

Police cars and ambulances filled almost the entire alley.

"All Right! Listen up, everyone! As far as we know, seven prisoners are still at large!"

Gray had just finished speaking.

Tim and Lucy led a bald prisoner over: "Six."

"Well done!"

"Correction: We have six fugitives at large!"

Just as he finished speaking, Li Wei and Nolan brought over the newly arrested prisoners: "Five!"

"Great! At this speed, we can still make it home and have dinner. I believe you can do even better."

After a pause, Gray looked around at the police officers.

"A prisoner escaping on foot can walk at a maximum of four miles per hour, and the prisoner escaped twenty minutes ago. That means the search area should be set at one mile."

"Establish a search perimeter in time, and then it's just a matter of going door-to-door to check and arrest these fugitives one by one."

"If the fugitive escapes the search cordon, the search within the area will turn into a city-wide manhunt."

"This will cause major security problems throughout the city."

"Next, Bishop, Wang, Michelle, and Palage. You drive the police cars back to the highway and guard the search perimeter."

"Bradford, Lopez, Keegan, and Willis. You will work with the investigation team to search the entire area."

O

"While you are pursuing the fugitives, the command center will inform you of the identities of each fugitive."

"But for now, let's assume each fugitive is extremely dangerous. Alright, let's go, let's catch the prisoners!"
