Jamie & Eddie had been called to respond to a 911 call. The call advised that it was a burglary in progress of a local nightclub which had recently been closed down in Operation Twilight. The op had been checking nightclubs for drugs, serving under age drinkers & unauthorised gambling; basically anything not in the legal running of a club.
Jamie radioed control to advise they had arrived & weapons drawn they walked cautiously down the side alley towards the back door. It was really quiet, Eddie wondered to herself what had made the person call 911 she couldn't see anything suspicious suggesting something was occurring.
They rounded the back of the building, Jamie checked the back entrance. It was locked tight turning to Eddie he started to say it looked like a false alarm when a group of men emerged from behind the piles of crates. Before he could shout warning to his partner she had been hit around the back of the head.
"JANKO" Jamie yelled as his partner hit the ground out cold. He watched as the group of men simply stepped around Eddies prone form and approached him. Jamie did a quick head count. 2 men had come from behind the crates, 2 more approached from the same alley he had walked up. "BACK UP" he yelled keeping his gun up. As he was outnumbered he really didn't know where to cover first. Reaching for the emergency button on his radio "12 David, 10-13..." Before he could finish the group rushed him. He felt the gun knocked from his hand, he tried to hit out but there were too many of them. A hand came across his face, the cloth in the hand wet. As he breathed in the cloth fumes his last thought as he blacked out was that this was no random attack. It had been planned.
As Jamies body went limp the man holding his face and one next to him grabbed him. With a whistle one of the other men signaled and a van reversed into the alley. Doors sprung open and Jamie was unceremoniously dragged into the back followed by all 4 of his attackers. Dropping Jamie to the floor one of the men unclipped Jamies belt and radio and as the van sped off around the corner he tossed it out the door behind a dumpster ...leaving officer Janko unconcious on the floor. Her head bleeding fresh red onto the path, unaware of the predicament her partner now found himself in.
The sound of sirens bought Eddie back to conciousness, groaning she reached her hand to the back of her head and it came away sticky with blood.
"Reagen, you ok?" She groaned, lifting herself off the floor. Lights blared into the alley as backup arrived, it was at this point she realised her partner hadn't responded. As panic gripped her chest she spun round searching for Jamie "REAGEN", still no answer. As her fellow officers approached she ran towards them, ignoring the pounding in her head.
"Hey Janko, you ok?" It was Sgt Renzulli, he took stock of the red blood on her hand "Eddie?"
"We were jumped, Jamies gone"
"What do you mean gone, Janko you're not making sense"
"I mean, he's missing! I was knocked out and when I came to he was gone...I dunno...what the hell happened?"
Renzulli noted the panic rising in his officers voice. Calling out to the other officers now approaching he ordered them to start a search and spread out. Maybe Officer Reagen was lying hurt somewhere. Ordering Janko to go and sit in the back of his patrol car he knew he had two calls to make, first he called for a bus for his injured officer and then he dialled the number he always loathed having to call in these conditions...the commissioners office.
Frank sat signing what seemed like an endless pile of papers, it was this sort of thing that made his mind wander back to his days as a cop on the streets; much less paperwork back then. As he signed the last one his office door sprung open and Baker stood there. Frank didn't need years of police training to be able to read the expression on her face, leaning back in his chair and laying down his pen he simply asked "What's happened?"
