Shooter Page #3

You all right?

CP, 17, can you repeat

possible suspect description?

Negative, no further at this time.

CP, this is 15.

No activity at my location.

I am available to move if necessary.

Copy that.

This is Officer Timmons

requesting backup.

Pursuing suspect in assassination.

Now fleeing in stolen FBI vehicle,

moving south on Front from Diamond.

Suspect is armed and dangerous.

I repeat,

suspect is armed and dangerous.

All Philly PD units be advised,

assassination suspect is fleeing

in a stolen FBI vehicle.

He is going south

on Front from Diamond.

This is Condor 2. We are transitioning

from roadhouse to Front Street.

Please advise for further description

of suspect vehicle.

Dispatch, 419,

I'm heading south on Thompson.

Do we have a color,

anything on the vehicle?

Assassination suspect's vehicle

is one government-issue

black 2006 Ford Crown Vic.

Pennsylvania license number

What was suspect's

last known location? Over.

Last known is south on Front.

This is Agent James. Do we have

multiple suspects or a single suspect?

Agent James, negative.

No further information...

This is Agent Pittman.

Car seen going high speed on Castor.

High speed on Castor. Be advised.

Timmons called it in?

Right on time, like he was supposed to.

- Before he shot him again.

- Yeah, well, he's been hit twice,

so unless he can stop the bleeding

without going to the hospital or a doctor,

it doesn't really matter.

They're going to find him lying dead

by a dumpster in an alley in 20 minutes.

What is your location?

Suspect vehicle a black sedan,

four-door...

All units be advised,

eyewitness reports suspect vehicle

entering High-Tech Car Wash

on the northwest corner

of Girard and 9th, over.

Command Post be advised,

this is Condor Two en route

to suspect location, over.

Command Post, Condor Three copies.

All en route.

- Yo, man!

- Watch it, man!

Sh*t!

Command Post, Condors Two

and Three moving to intercept, over.

Suspect vehicle collided with a truck

under the 95.

He's at Market and Columbus.

Looks good. Vehicle is disabled.

Repeat, vehicle disabled.

Take him down! Fire!

I got a Crown Vic. Black.

Government plates.

Dead guy in the front seat?

I want the banks of this river lined

for 30 miles, five minutes ago.

All right.

Let's start the search downriver.

I'm here with Officer Timmons,

who pursued the suspect on foot.

Officer, can you tell us what happened?

The would-be assassin,

tentatively identified

as retired Marine Gunnery Sergeant

Bob Lee Swagger,

is being pursued by thousands of State

and Federal law enforcement personnel

as we speak.

As the net begins to tighten nationwide,

there is still no trace of Swagger.

Nothing but an abandoned car

has been found

at the bottom of the Delaware River.

Seven-year veteran Philadelphia

police officer Stanley Timmons,

first to respond to the scene,

is believed to have shot

and injured Swagger.

Early reports indicate that the assailant

may have been hit

as many as two times.

Meanwhile, the FBI has been

unwilling to comment

on information that an agent of theirs

was assaulted and disarmed

by Swagger as he fled the scene,

possibly in a stolen FBI vehicle.

At this time, no sign of Swagger

has been found.

You have embarrassed this office.

You will be facing a review from the

Office of Professional Responsibility.

Sir...

Well, I don't feel embarrassed.

A Force Recon Marine Scout Sniper

disarmed me three weeks

out of the academy.

If anything, I feel lucky to be alive.

Why'd he say

he didn't shoot the President?

Because he didn't.

Also, he said Timmons was a setup.

He never said that.

City cop managed to spot,

shoot this guy twice.

You got your ass kicked.

You're misremembering.

That's normal

under extreme stress events.

Have you given

your official statement yet?

Because I would be very cautious

about what went in it.

Well, maybe I should wait for the report

to come out, read it and then remember.

Can you believe this f***ing guy?

There you go.

- Yes?

- The raw feeds are in

from the networks.

...development, security camera footage

from Washington, D.C.

and several locations in Philadelphia

shows the suspect,

Gunnery Sergeant Bob Lee Swagger,

scouting shooting locations,

traveling and taking wind readings.

As the net begins to tighten nationwide,

there is still no trace of Swagger.

Excuse me.

Can't sell you nothing.

Just lost our power.

Please. I got cash,

and you can keep the change.

Ain't gonna be able to find nothing.

Please, all I need is a marinade needle,

some salt, some sugar,

couple bottles of water.

How many?

Well, sir, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry to hear that.

I'm sure she's

a really nice Christian woman

but we don't take care

of those things here.

- Yeah. Okay, well...

- The FBI released a video letter...

- ...see a counselor.

- ...threatening the life of the President...

Dr. Phil or something. Okay.

...signed and dated

by Bob Lee Swagger just 10 days ago.

Federal agents today

executed a search warrant

in the Wind River range of Wyoming

where Swagger had been living

for several years.

In the meantime, the FBI

has been unwilling to comment,

as no sign of Swagger has been found.

- Get anything?

- No.

Yeah, wait, wait. Where was this?

And? Yes?

She thinks it was him, but it was dark

because the power was out in the store.

- What'd he buy?

- Gotta be.

Salt, sugar, water,

and a marinade injector.

Guy going to a barbecue.

Salt, water, an injector could be used

for an IV,

but what's with the sugar?

Whoa, whoa, whoa!

Hold that! Hold that!

Well, sugar's been used to treat

battlefield wounds

for hundreds of years.

It has something to do

with osmotic pressure.

It was popular

during the Napoleonic War.

You go into Howard's office

with the Napoleonic War,

he's gonna put you on psych leave.

Go back to your desk.

I'm saving your life.

One thing is...

...1790 to 1800.

One thing is...

I'm sorry to bother you, ma'am.

I know who you are.

You're Bob Lee. Swagger.

Donnie's old partner.

Look, I didn't shoot the President.

I know.

You do?

The President's not dead.

Ethiopian Archbishop is.

Why in the hell

would somebody want to shoot him?

Look, you're a nurse, right?

No. No, that was Donnie's dream.

I couldn't stand the blood.

I teach the third grade.

- Please.

- Look, you should go.

Please.

Please?

I didn't do whatever they said I did.

I swear.

I'm in some bad trouble

and I need some help.

I wouldn't have come all the way here

to lie to you.

You still figuring on shooting me?

Only that shotgun's a little long

to bring up fast.

Look, if you're going to do it,

just get it over with.

I ain't got nowhere else to go.

Pull the truck in the garage.

The neighbors'll be up in a minute.

You'd best call me Sarah.

All right.

Hello?

This is 911. We received a hang-up

from this location.

Yeah, neighbor's dog knocked over

the trash cans

and scared the hell out of me.
