Officer McDonald, while a seasoned officer, was also no fool. He quickly assessed the situation, and determining that it was not only growing out of hand, it was far more than he could handle alone. Putting his car into reverse, he slowly began to back down the road he arrived on, when He saw the first of them, a Booster.
He knew the signs, as he's seen them before. The pulsating muscles, the perspiration, and the the look of shear rage and anger on their faces, and he new he was in trouble.
"23 to Dispatch...23 to Dispatch! Advise MCU I have a Booster on scene!:
"23, repeat your last."
"Dispatch, be advised, I have a Booster on scene!"
"10-4 unit 23, Booster on scene"
A loud squelching noise erupts from the radio
BEEEEEPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!
"Dispatch to all units, Dispatch to all units clear the air and standby. Booster on scene at 23rd and Lincoln. Unit on scene requesting assistance from all available units, as well as MCU and ESU, any units responding please advise"
For Det. Nathan Jones it'd been a long day. and he was hoping to get to unwind, have a cold beer, and enjoy the NBA game on his new TV (it was the EC Warriors versus the Miami Heat), and he'd made a friendly wager with one of his coworkers (if the Warriors lost, he'd have to wash his buddy's car every weekend for the next month).
Just as he was just sitting down to watch the first half of the game, his phone began to vibrate. Taking a sip of his beer, he glanced down at the screen "Booster spotted, the boss wants us in, as it could get nasty. Get here ASAP." And with that, he knew his chances of a quiet evening at home were done.
