INT. SOUTH FERRY STATION. BRIEFING ROOM. DAY.
We cut straight in to the bustle of a briefing.
There’s an audience of 17 police officers, all
in uniform (1 Inspector + 2 Sergeants + 14 PCs),
many still getting their bullet-proof jackets
on, one or two still filling in at the back to
make the total number.
Enter the Strategic Firearms Commander (SFC) -TERRY
REYNOLDS. Behind him a screen that shows a
city map.
UNIFORMED OFFICERS all stand to attention as he
enters. He signals them to sit.
REYNOLDS:
Okay. Thank you.
A uniformed bullet-proof-vested Sergeant sits
near the front, making notes in a pad with an
air of cool professionalism. This is SERGEANT
DANNY WALDRON.
REYNOLDS (CONT’D)
Operation Damson is an on-going
initiative aimed at detection slash
prevention of gangland murders.
Surveillance of a suspect under
Operation Damson has been in place
at an address for less than 24
hours, with intelligence sources
indicating a significant belief the
suspect is preparing to commit a
gangland execution –
C/U DANNY WALDRON. Close to Danny sit 3 PCs
HARINDERPAL “HARI” BAINS, PC ROD KENNEDY, PC
JACKIE BRICKFORD.
REYNOLDS (CONT’D)(O.S)
The suspect is a known criminal
with a history of violence. He is
expected to be armed...

Moments later. |
|
McAndrew takes over the briefing as the 17 |
firearms officers sign for their firearms. |
|
MCANDREW |
You will each sign that you |
understand the law regarding the |
legal use of force as outlined by |
the SFC. You will each sign out |
your weapon. You will each sign out |
the type of ammunition and the |
number of rounds. |

In a row, the firearms teams all sign the forms |
--there are boxes to fill in relating to |
regulations, weapons and ammunition. We see the |
details of the forms. |
|
Then we see the weapons and ammunitions being |
issued to the officers. |

Danny loads his gun, his face a mask. |
