Chapter 683 Shooting(1/2)
Hearing these words, Luke had a bad feeling in his heart.
The "catch them all" mentioned by David is definitely not a small fight, it is a fierce fight.
Isn't it a bit too reckless to round up a gang just because of the suspect's words?
But then again, if you weren't reckless, you wouldn't be in the Anti-Gang and Anti-Drug Department.
Luke stopped the other party, "Wait a minute, now is not the time to do this. We have to find out first whether it was someone from the Viper Gang who killed Jones."
David also responded, "Do you suspect there is something wrong here?"
Luke thought for a moment, "It's hard to say. When I talked to Teddy Tucker, his mental state was very bad, full of panic, fear, and worry.
His concern for his family doesn't seem to be fake.
I want to wait until his mood stabilizes before conducting the interrogation."
David was silent for a moment, "Then what are we going to do?"
"Don't tell me you don't have an informant in the Viper Gang."
"Of course, but Jones was killed because of his informant, so I'm not sure they are worthy of belief."
Luke thought for a while, "There is no need to believe it completely. As long as we ask them to help find out the information, we can judge for ourselves whether Jones' death is related to the Viper Gang."
David nodded, "I'll take care of it."
Luke warned, "Remember, don't fight with the Viper Gang until you find out.
What if, I mean what if Teddy Tucker lied.
Then, the real culprit is likely to be someone else, and the other person's purpose is probably to provoke the police and make the police and the Viper Gang fight."
Upon hearing this, David immediately calmed down, "I understand, I won't touch the Viper Gang for the time being.
Where is that scar face? What are you going to do?"
"Send me the information on that scar face.
I will watch the investigation."
"Understood."
After David left, Luke sighed softly and sat on a chair to think.
If the Vipers really killed Jones, wouldn't they just kill the informant Teddy Tucker and no one would know about it?
And why keep this Teddy Tucker top tank?
The police are not fools. It would be difficult for Teddy Tucker to take on this matter alone.
Analyzing from this perspective, could someone deliberately lead the investigation to the Viper Gang?
afternoon.
Luke interrogates Teddy Tucker again.
This time Luke had Scarface's detailed information and photos, and with Teddy Tucker's identification, he determined that Scarface was the real murderer of Jones.
Of the other three accomplices, two are Scarface's younger brothers in the Viper Gang, and the identity of the other is unknown.
Teddy Tucker's mood was much more stable this time, and Luke saw no obvious signs of lying.
Scarface is the confidant of the Viper Gang boss. If Scarface is the real murderer, then the Viper Gang is probably the mastermind behind the murder of Jones.
"Ding ding ding..." Luke's cell phone rang, and David's number was displayed on the screen.
"I'm Luke."
"An informant found traces of Scarface, and we met in the parking lot."
"clear."
Luke returned to the Robbery and Murder Division office and called on several team members to work together.
After arriving at the parking lot, Luke got directly into David's car and asked, "How's it going?"
David said as he started the car, "An informant found Scarface fighting on Kalisch Avenue in the western suburbs of Los Angeles."
"Who is Scarface fighting with?"
"The informant is not very clear either."
Luke asked, "Isn't that the Viper Gang's territory?"
"No, many people running to Mexico will choose that direction."
Luke said, "In the afternoon, I interrogated Teddy Tucker again, and this time he clearly identified Scarface.
Do you think Scarface was instigated by the Vipers?"
David fell silent and sighed, "It's hard to tell.
It stands to reason that Scarface is the backbone of the Viper Gang and the confidant of the Viper Gang boss. It is impossible that such a big thing as killing Jones has nothing to do with the gang behind it.
Also, I haven't heard of any personal vendetta between Jones and Scarface.
But the strange thing is that several police informants in the Viper Gang did not hear any news that the Viper Gang wanted to kill Jones.
Although the status of these informants in the Viper Gang is not high, if the Viper Gang really kills Jones, they will definitely be prepared for police retaliation and the gang will take some corresponding measures.
But now the Viper Gang is business as usual, without any gathering, tense atmosphere, nor any mobilization and defense.
It will not be difficult for the police to crack down on the Viper Gang."
Luke said, "Can you talk to the leader of the Viper Gang?
If he dares to go to the police station, his innocence can be proven to a certain extent.
If we can get his help, maybe we can find out the real reason why Scarface killed Jones."
"What you said makes sense. If the boss of the Viper Gang dares not go to the police station, it means there is something wrong with him.
At least he knew about it." David snorted, "If that's the case, there's no need for us to be polite."
Half an hour later, Luke and the two arrived at Kalisch Avenue in the western suburbs of Los Angeles.
Patrol police have cordoned off the scene.
After Luke got out of the car, he put on his police badge and asked a patrol officer, "What's going on here?"
?????55.?????
The patrolman shrugged, "Sir.
We received a call saying there was a shootout nearby.
By the time we arrived, the gunfight was over, and there were only two bodies, a damaged car and bullet casings on the ground."
Luke nodded, passed the patrolman, and walked into the scene of the shootout to investigate.
Judging from the situation at the scene, the warring parties should be on both sides of the road. Two shot bodies were lying next to the car. Blood stained the road red. There were also a large number of bullet holes on the car. You can imagine how big the scene was at that time.
fierce.
Luke walked over to the two corpses and took a closer look. They were Scarface's two younger brothers and the murderers who participated in the murder of Jones.
David also recognized the two corpses, "It makes these two bastards easier to die so easily."
Luke carefully observed the road and found four pools of blood around him, two of which belonged to the two deceased people. One of the other two pools of blood was not far from the body, and the other was in the opposite lane.
Luke guessed that there were other people injured at the shooting scene.
David came over and said, "According to the informant's information, Scarface was driving a Mercedes-Benz. The car was not found around. He may still be alive and drove away."
Luke said, "It's probably someone behind the scenes who wants to silence him."
"Woooo..." At this moment, several cars drove over from a distance, attracting the attention of Luke and David.
The car stopped outside the cordon, and a group of Mexican men got out of the car. They all had the same tattoos on their bodies and walked toward the scene of the gunfight with ill intentions.
The surrounding police officers were immediately alert, with their right hands on their pistols.
Raymond stepped forward and stretched out his left hand to signal them to stop, "Don't go any further. This is a crime scene. Leave immediately."
A middle-aged Mexican man wearing sunglasses walked forward and pointed at his chest, "My brother is dead. As his family, shouldn't I come?"
David came over and looked at the Mexican man wearing sunglasses, "Oh, isn't this Carlo Rose, the boss of the Viper Gang?"
"It's me, Deputy David. I hope you can give me an explanation."
David smiled, "Explain?"
"Yes, my people were shot for no reason, isn't it your Los Angeles Police Department that should be responsible?
Where is Scarface?
I want to see him."
David shook his head, "It seems that what you do as the boss is a little outdated and you don't know anything. You might as well give up your position to the people below and retire early.
Maybe I can save a small life."
Carlo Rose said with a cold face, "You don't need to worry about my affairs. Just mind yourself, Deputy David."
