Fourteen prisoners and

two policemen were killed...

in what authorities describe

as a commando- style raid.

All bodies

have been accounted for...

with the exception

of two prisoners.

Witnesses saw the two men

boarding a helicopter...

shortly after the bus

exploded into flames.

The two fugitives are wanted

in connection with the murders.

This has got sweeps week

written all over it.

Let me know how it turns out.

On the left is a John Doe

police arrested at L.A.X...

for possession

of a counterfeit passport.

And on the right,

Franklin Maurice Hatchett...

a local street hustler

with suspected gang ties...

who was en route to Van Nuys...

to be arraigned on charges

of soliciting goods.

The two fugitives

are considered dangerous.

Fourteen prisoners due to face

a Van Nuys judge today...

now face the ultimate

judgment day of all...

one where sentencing comes

with no chance of reversal.

Freeze!

Come out with

your hands above your head!

I'm gonna come out,

but I didn't do it!

Don't shoot!

I didn't kill no cops!

Is this James Russell?

I'm on my way.

I cannot wait for you

to eat my ass.

Here it is.

Good afternoon.

I'm Detective Pickett...

and this is Williams.

I wondered if we might chat

about Franklin Hatchett.

Franklin's not here.

We're dealing

with a multiple homicide.

Would you just open the door?

Excuse you?

I'm sorry. Listen...

it would only take

a few minutes of your time.

We'd really appreciate it.

Please?

Thank you so much.

When was the last time

you spoke to him?

He left on the freak train

to Atlanta six weeks ago.

I haven't seen him since.

Do you think this is funny?

I got a busload of bodies

and a couple dead cops...

because of your gangbanger.

Franklin ain't no banger.

If I find out

you're helping him...

I'm going

to make your life miserable.

Back off, please.

Treat the lady with respect.

Can you help us out, Paula?

I swear,

I don't know where he is.

This is such bullshit!

You know...

It's OK.

All I'm saying is

if he tries to contact you...

give me a call.

It's so much better

if he turns himself in.

He stays out on the street,

he's gonna get himself killed.

I'm trying to protect him.

This is my card.

Will you give me a holler?

Thank you.

Keep it running.

This might be quick.

White boy.

What the f*** was that for?

That's for getting me busted.

What you bring a gun for?

'Cause you're wanted for murder.

I ain't murdered

no- goddamn- body.

I don't know that.

Now you know.

'Cause if I could,

I'd murder your ass right now...

coming down here with a gun.

Guns don't kill people.

Stupid motherfuckers

with guns kill people.

I'm enlightened.

Let me enlighten your ass.
