This is a police matter, sir.

- For your own safety, continue on your way.

- What's going on?

You shut your mouth,

boy, do as you're told.

Now move on there or I will arrest you.

Son of a b*tch.

Damn.

Son of a b*tch is out of range.

Looks like he's headed

towards Brown's Lake.

Put the word out.

Dispatch, this is 26,

suspect heading towards

Brown's Lake on foot, armed and dangerous.

26, this is 10.

We are at the other side of the river.

Copy 10, heading your direction.

Hey, I see him over there.

I think I got him.

I think not. Let's go.

Gant, I see him, that's him. That is him!

- Well, let 'em know.

- 26, this is 10.

We have a 20 on your suspect.

He is heading towards Bohemian Hall.

Best part of the job, partner.

Best part of the job.

I'm with you.

Let's get him.

Let's have ourselves some fun, huh?

Santana?

We know you're in here.

Come out, amigo.

Listen...

Reid here has never lost a fight...

and I likes me a good fight.

So if you can come out and kick his ass...

we will let you go... Scot-free.

You can trust us.

We're deputies.

If you don't...

we're gonna go to your house...

and kill your wife.

I beat him...

you let me go?

You will walk right out of here.

That's the deal.

Let's see what you got, boy.

Let's get it on!

You'll have to do better than that.

Ol.

That means "you're getting your ass kicked"

in Mexican.

I can handle this. Come on.

Let's go.

Is that all you got?

Now, listen.

What, no fight left?

Still undefeated.

Reid?

That's one dead burrito.

Well...

can I help you?

Yes.

I'd like to file a complaint.

Well, if you'd like to file a complaint,

see Alexa.

Right over there.

Boyd?

Pardon me, ma'am.

My name is Jack Justice.

I want to file a complaint.

What seems to be the trouble?

I saw two police officers

beating up a defenseless man.

You mean they were using excessive force?

They was kicking his ass.

Dispatch, this is 26.

We have a 187 at the north

side of Brown's Lake.

Do we have a possible ID on the body?

Yes, Ray Santana.

Go for Alexa.

I need you to go over to the Santana home

and break the news to his wife.

Copy that.

Pardon me, officer,

can I go on a ride along?

I don't think that's a good idea.

I'm a police officer also.

LAPD.

Hannah, what do you think?

Well, he is an officer,

won't hurt to take him with you.

All right. Come on.

All right, gentlemen, talk to me.

What do we got?

Sheriff,

looks like cause of death's a broken neck.

Yes, it does.

Looks like cause of death

was a broken neck.

Any other possible witnesses?

A big black guy pulled up

asking if he could help but...

we sent him on his way.

Big black guy?

Yes, sir.

This big black guy see anything?
