motorcycle gear, same as the
ambush. Denton made her escape.
They car-jacked a vehicle from a
passing motorist -
(Indicates motorist.)

there’s no sign of them and no sign
of Lindsay. We’ve got all-patrols
observations out on the vehicle.
And on Lindsay.
The ambulance departs.

That’s the prison officers. They
look to be fine. As for Denton ...

kidnapped -
