North American Gunslinger Detective

Chapter 601 The Gunner Appears
Jimmy and the others had not left Brooklyn in the first place. They turned around at the intersection and turned to a new target. The security in Brownsville, Brooklyn is still very different from that in places close to Manhattan. It is daytime, and many wanderers are still resting. At night, When the time comes, that will be the real challenge.

In fact, the public security in most areas of New York is pretty good, especially during the day. The basic safety of traveling or activities in various areas can be guaranteed, but it is different at night. New York City, known as the city that never sleeps, many places become completely deserted at night. It’s different.

Brownsville is such a place. If Jimmy comes here for a walk at night, he can probably kill several people without any problem.

Arriving at the block where the target disappeared, Jimmy took a look at the surveillance on the traffic light at the intersection. Well, he had already discovered why there was no surveillance video. The surveillance cameras were all broken and seemed to have been vandalized, so this area was separated. NYPD's remote surveillance.

They walked around the road first and saw the same problem at several intersections. It should have been caused by the gang members here to make it easier for them to move around.

Don't expect that if the surveillance camera is broken, it can be repaired quickly. In fact, if it is broken, it is broken. You have to wait for them to arrange repair or replacement, at least until the next budget fiscal year, or simply be forgotten here.

When Jimmy was walking around the street, he found a cordon around an apartment. There were various numerical labels placed on the ground. Judging from the colors, it seemed that what happened here was a shooting and a murder, and the number of bullets fired would not be small. .

After thinking about it, Jimmy parked the car aside and the three people came over.A policeman standing outside the cordon raised his hand to stop them, "FBI Agent Jimmy Young, what happened here?"

Jimmy showed his ID. The police took a look at the ID and said, "A shooting case between gang members occurred at about 9 o'clock last night. There was a scuffle between the two parties, and two people were killed and three injured."

Jimmy nodded. This kind of thing was very common. He asked casually, "Do you know who did it?" and then looked at the scene inside.

Policeman: "I don't know. If you want to know, you might need to contact the bureau."

Jimmy waved to Julia, "Julia, give me the car information."

Julia handed Jimmy the surveillance photo of the car with the fake license plate, "Have you seen this silver-white Toyota around here? We are looking for this car and it disappeared in this area."

The policeman took one look and shook his head: "I didn't pay attention."

Jimmy: "Thank you."

Jimmy turned to Mark and Julia and said, "You two go around this block, be careful, and call me if you find anything."

Mark nodded, and he turned around and left with Julia. Jimmy returned to the car, turned on the car radio, adjusted to the frequency of the NYPD dispatch center and contacted them. After reporting his identity, he asked them to notify the patrol police in Brooklyn to keep an eye on him. The license plate number of concern.

Originally, he wanted to investigate by himself, but after seeing the police here just now, he thought of using the street patrol to help. Fortunately, it's not too late now.

The radio was on, and Jimmy turned on his hidden police lights and drove slowly around the road, paying attention to the cars on the side of the road and the cars that passed him.

The reason why he turned on his hidden police lights was because he was driving slowly and affecting traffic. If he didn't want to be picked on by others, it would be more convenient. Other cars would drive past him after seeing his situation and would not follow him. Blocking traffic behind.

The phone rang and Jimmy picked it up, "We found him, Jimmy, two blocks away."

Julia gasped and shouted loudly. It was obvious that the phone was not to her ear, and her voice was very floating.Jimmy directly clicked the siren switch and rushed out. His sudden action obviously affected the normal driving vehicles. The car in front did not even notice that the police car passing by suddenly accelerated and rushed forward, dodging left and right. Almost had a car accident.

Jimmy was not in the mood to care about these things now, and immediately turned around after slowing down slightly at the intersection. "Bang bang..." Even though the siren was sounding, Jimmy still heard gunshots nearby. Something happened.

Jimmy looked nervously at the roadside, and at the same time opened his mind and observed whether there was anything unusual in the buildings on the roadside. The gunfire had stopped, and now he didn't see where the people were at all.

The phone was not hung up, and before Jimmy came to Julia and the others, Julia's voice came over the phone, "Jimmy, we have lost him."

Jimmy: "I'm on my way."

After a while, Jimmy finally spotted Julia and the two of them. They were walking out of an alley. After parking the car, Jimmy turned off the siren and kept the lights on. "Julia, tell me in detail."

Julia and Mark came to Jimmy's side, "We found a car of the same model here, the one in front, but it didn't have a license plate installed.

While we were observing the situation in the car, a man came out of the building. He thought we were going to steal the car. When Mark reported his identity, he immediately turned around and fled towards the alley.

Sorry, we didn't catch up with him. He turned around and shot at us in the alley. We fired back and wasted time, allowing him to escape. We didn't find his location. "

Jimmy: "Where did he escape?"

Julia: "In the alley, there was an iron fence blocking him. He climbed over and reached the street. By the time we got there, he had completely disappeared."

Jimmy took a deep breath and exhaled, "I understand. When we were investigating the suspects, we had a shootout with the suspects and let them run away. This is normal. Don't worry about it. Julia, call someone from the forensics department to come over and check the car." The places he touched in cars and alleys will confirm his identity. Are you sure he came out of this building?"

Mark: "Sure, I saw him first. Caucasian, with very short hair, no beard, about 180cm tall, young, about 30 years old. Black coat, with a hooded sweatshirt underneath, dark color jeans."

Jimmy: "Mark, go inside and find someone to confirm his identity. Julia, after making the call, stay with Mark. I'll go to the scene to take a look."

Mark and Julia nodded, and Jimmy walked towards the alley. Mark and the others had fired back, and Jimmy was looking for the scene of their shootout.

The gunman in the park had good marksmanship. He used a rifle that time. Generally speaking, people who often practice guns must be familiar with pistols. They should also have practiced with pistols. It can be judged based on the bullet impact point of the gun between him and Mark. A lot of things happened.

Jimmy found the bullet casings on the ground and looked around. He found three bullet holes in the wall, roughly where a person would normally stand on his chest. He turned around and fired while escaping. The bullets landed quite accurately.

Jimmy searched forward and found five bullet casings one after another. He looked at the walls on both sides and only found four bullet holes. It seemed that Mark and Julia's shooting skills were just okay.

Based on the positions of several bullet casings on the ground, we can roughly deduce the escape route of the gunman. It can be roughly seen that the gun lines of both of them are basically around the gunman. However, there is no blood on the ground, which means that neither of them hit a single shot. This is a slight stretch. .

Jimmy returned to where Mark and the others were shooting and waited. After a while, Mark came over. He looked at where Jimmy was standing and said, "This is where we took shelter during the gunfight."

Jimmy: "Well, how many shots did he fire?" Mark: "Four to five shots. The situation was very urgent and I didn't hear clearly."

Jimmy: "How much did you fight back?"

Mark: "I have four shots, Julia has a little more, maybe ten shots."

Jimmy: "Did you hit it?"

Mark: "No, I'm sorry, it happened suddenly, but I can basically tell that this person has service experience and at least received professional training."

Jimmy nodded: "Don't worry, no one can guarantee that he will be as accurate in actual combat as in training. Why do you judge that he has service experience?"

Mark: "The way he fired and the way he climbed over the wall were different from my previous troops, but they were very similar to one of my comrades when I was operating overseas, probably the Marine Corps."

Jimmy thought for a while: "How long until the people from the forensics department arrive?"

Mark: "Half an hour. There was an accident in the building next to it. We asked several people, but no one knew who the man was. The identity of the person living here seems to be somewhat problematic, so it is difficult to determine."

Jimmy: "Let's go and look around to see if there is any surveillance available."

Jimmy and Mark left the alley, and Julia stopped everyone who wanted to come in at the entrance of the alley. This was now the scene of a gun battle and needed to be investigated by the forensics department. If someone came in, it would be easy to mess up the scene.

Jimmy opened the car door and turned off the hidden police lights, and then made arrangements with Julia and Mark. The two of them went around to see if there was any available surveillance information, while Jimmy stayed here to guard the scene, especially the car that didn't. The Toyota that took the photo is likely the car that the gunman drove when he left during the shooting in the park.

The people in the forensics department really have some opinions about Jimmy. Every time he takes a case, there is a lot to investigate. This time, in addition to checking the bullet casings left at the scene of the gunfight, they also need to follow the gunman's escape location to check whether there are any fingerprints left. , this is really tiring.

Jimmy and the others were lucky. There was a surveillance camera at a door diagonally across the building that was normally available. Although it was not directly facing here, the entrance to the alley could still be seen from the corner of the surveillance camera, which also included the Toyota.

The car parked here at about 10 o'clock last night. A man got out of the car, took off the license plate from the back of the car, held it in his hand, and walked into the building next to it.

This is the evidence. Although the specific appearance of the person who got off the car cannot be seen in the surveillance, his body shape can basically be judged to be the same as the gunman they met today. Jimmy directly recruited a team of supporting agents to investigate the building. Every household in the house needs to be inquired.

There are some blacks and Latinos living here, Jimmy discovered while waiting for the support agent to inquire. It is estimated that a considerable number of these people have no legal status.

These are managed by ICE, and Jimmy has no interest in causing trouble, as long as they can answer questions normally and allow him to confirm the identity of the shooter.

Soon, they located two adjacent rooms. The neighbor said that he had seen a nearly bald man enter the room in the past two days, but did not pay attention to which room he entered. There is no one now.

Jimmy called Ruiz and asked for his help in applying for a search warrant. After explaining the reasons on the phone, Ruiz arranged for someone to contact the judge.

An hour later, Jimmy received a call. The search warrant had been signed and Ruiz arranged for it to be delivered.Now that it was confirmed that the search warrant had arrived, Jimmy was too lazy to wait. He kicked the door open and the agents entered the room with guns drawn. "FBI."

"Safe." The detective in front made sure that there was no danger in the room, and then shouted "safe," and Jimmy and the others followed in.

"Weapons found, two AR rifles."

"A handgun was found."

The detectives searched the room and quickly reported their findings.

The people from the forensics department came in after the people inside confirmed that they were safe. Jimmy grabbed a forensics department employee and said, "As soon as possible, confirm whether the fingerprints on these weapons match the fingerprints found in the alley below, and arrange for someone to check the two weapons." Compare the bullet mark detection of the rifle with the bullet mark of the bullet in the park shooting."

Forensic Department: "Understood, I will arrange it immediately. However, bullet mark comparison will take a long time, and the laboratory may not be able to arrange it now."

Jimmy: "I'll communicate. Don't worry, we can handle it."

The person from the forensic department nodded and shouted to the person in front: "Check the fingerprints on the gun first, let's start work."

Jimmy waved to Mark and Julia, and the three of them went downstairs and returned to the office. They could just leave the scene to them. There was no need for the field agents to follow the entire process of obtaining evidence.

Jimmy couldn't handle the communication with the laboratory himself, but Ruiz could help make a phone call, which was easy and not a big deal.

After taking a break in the office, Jimmy came to the supervisor's office. Ruiz first learned about the current investigation progress, and then agreed to Jimmy's request. If the laboratory could complete the test in advance, the entire investigation process would be shortened by a long time.

Ruiz: "By the way, we have a small party next Friday. If you have time, come and join us."

Jimmy: "Oh? What's the matter?"

Ruiz: "The drug trafficking investigation is almost over."

Jimmy: "Seventeen is coming back?"

Ruiz nodded: "If he doesn't reveal his identity, he will definitely be prosecuted and imprisoned. He can only reveal his identity. The hearing at the federal prosecutor's office has already been held. When this case enters the prosecution process, You can come back publicly at seventeen."

Jimmy: "Okay, I'll participate. Where will he go when he comes back?"

Ruiz: "The anti-terrorism team, it is not convenient for him to appear at the front desk at the moment. Let's stay there for a while and then talk about it."
