January first, a night of terror for Los Santos

LOS SANTOS: Gruppe 6 works night and day around Los Santos to secure various locations and properties under their 'Town watch program'. Such duties include checking on properties to make sure their doors are locked and that they are free of vandalism. This particular evening a unit had been sent down to do such a check on a property located on Roy Lowenstein boulevard, Davis. Between 10 and 11 PM, Richard Hampton is nearby - out on an evening patrol of his own, he decides to tag along with the unit to check the property out.

 

The moment the employees step out of their vehicles, like something out of an action movie, they immediately face automatic gunfire from across the street. Unaware as to why they are being shot at, Hampton jumps behind his own vehicle in an attempt to take cover, his colleague finding himself pinned down behind a metal bin nearby. Upon speaking to Hampton, he believes they had intercepted a robbery and suddenly found themselves in the midst of it all. Richard Hampton was quoted in saying; "That same property was robbed a few days ago prior getting secured by us."

 

In a stressful attempt to scream for his colleague to contact the police whilst he shot back towards the individual that had opened fire. In the darkness of the winter evening - all he saw and could return fire against was the muzzle flash. Claiming he withdrew as best he could and shot back in the direction in an attempt to cover himself. Hampton tells us that the muzzle flash was in an alley between two buildings, making him sure the perpetrator was there.

 

"I shot back against the flashes and kept firin' while my colleague called 9-1-1."

- Richard Hampton

 

Finally the sound of sirens are approaching, but at this point Hampton could no longer see any muzzle flashes or hear any shots coming from the alley. He had stopped shooting himself and awaited the presence of the police. In the chaotic moment as police arrive, they rushed towards the alley where the perpetrator was previous spotted. Once back on his feet and coming over there himself, Hampton could see that the perpetrator had passed away, and was dead on the ground. "Nobody knows who killed him." Hampton states. "It could have been me and it might've been the PD, but I didn't see the PD shooting." The body had been covered by a blanket when Hampton made it over there, making him unable to identify the person that had opened fire on him and his colleague. Upon the finalizing of the situation, Hampton was surprised to find it that the police did not question him nor inspect the somewhat ruined vehicles. When asked if he spoke to the police at all, or even got credit for getting involved in such a crime being prevented, Hampton responded; "They just left and frowned at us as if we made 'em go there and have to deal with it. Like I disturbed their peace or somethin'. They weren't really interested in investigating the thing."

 

We have of course reached out to the Los Santos Police Department and are waiting on a response to this, but so far we have not received a statement. The article will be updated should we receive anything. But for now, the Los Santos Police Department has been quiet about the incident.

 

Upon being asked if him or his employee suffered any injuries - Hampton ensures that both him and his colleague came from the incident unharmed. And that the only real damage that came his way, were shattered glass spraying over him from the vehicle being struck by multiple bullets. Their vehicles however, suffered major damage. Hampton is thankful they were properly insured before he came into this whole ordeal.

 

"We've been gettin' lots of situations recently as we increase our client base but haven't had a shots fired situation till now."

- Richard Hampton

Hampton agrees that this could definitely have ended in a bloodbath, had he not showed up alongside his colleague. He states that it is important they prevented the robbery of the property, as well as getting away unscathed. Their presence being purely coincidental. No alarms had gone off in the neighborhood, their program showing that their presence may indeed be needed in these areas as well. Making a point out of their 'town watch program'. Hampton clarifies that they rarely get alarms or calls down in the Davis area. He states they rarely get contracts in the area, believing that the locals wish to protect themselves. This sets a dangerous and violent standard for the new year.
