The stretcher was carried out and the ambulances roared away.
The two seriously injured criminals were also carried out of the basketball hall.
One had a broken head and bleeding, and the other was shot and fell unconscious.
The top person in charge of the LAPD at the scene, Bratton, who was also the director at the time, looked solemn. Such a serious and vicious case had once again occurred in Los Angeles.
A police inspector came over quickly.
Bratton asked: "What are the casualties?"
"None of us were injured." The police officer quickly reported the situation at the scene: "One criminal was killed by SWAT, and the other two criminals were seriously injured. They were suspected of being subdued by Hollywood movie star Martin Davis. Among the victims, more than ten are currently confirmed dead. There are also more than a dozen people seriously injured, mainly basketball team members and staff of Burbank Middle School."
Bratton cursed a few curse words in his mind and said: "Collect on-site surveillance videos, comfort the injured, contact their families, try not to let them talk nonsense, and make notes for those who are in a stable mood. I want to understand what happened in the arena. .”
This case is bound to shock the United States.
Several female police officers arrived and contacted the cheerleaders to learn more about the situation.
Everyone's words all point to one thing: Martin Davis!
It was Martin Davis who saved them and risked his own life to subdue the gunman.
The LAPD only got a video of SWAT rushing in on Helen's DV, but they got the recording tape from the cameraman's camera.
Bratton and several police officers watched the videotape together. The video was not long, less than ten minutes, but it clearly recorded that Martin Davis' manager noticed something unusual, Martin asked people to leave quickly, and continued until the convenience store exploded with cola. Scenes of the head.
"A model of self-rescue," said a police superintendent.
Another female police superintendent answered: "Without Martin Davis, none of those dozen girls would have survived."
The video is very intuitive. The gangsters were so jealous that they rushed into the store and shot randomly. If Martin Davis hadn't taken action at all costs, everyone hiding in the store would have been shot.
The death of a dozen young girls has a much greater negative impact than the murder of the same number of men.
Superintendent McClain, who specializes in public relations, said: "Martin Davis is a hero. He saved Los Angeles from a super massacre."
Everyone knew that if there were more dead people, the pressure they would face would be countless times greater.
Those who can study in this top private high school come from the worst-off families and are also wealthy and middle-class.
"Following public opinion is a problem." Before the corpse of the deceased was cold, Bratton was already considering the social impact.
Being able to sit in his position, many times he thinks more like a politician: "We must guide the direction of public opinion."
"I think Martin Davis is the key," McLean said.
Bratton took the initiative and said: "I won't let him have contact with outsiders for the time being. Let's go meet him together."
McClain went with Bratton to find Martin.
The LAPD was very considerate and specially hired two beautiful policewomen in their twenties to chat with Martin and Bruce.
Martin chatted with them wordlessly. He was not surprised when he saw Bratton and McClain. He knew that the LAPD would definitely take the initiative to talk to him.
McClain glanced at Helen, the reporter, and took the initiative to shake hands with Martin. He introduced himself first, then introduced Bratton, and said, "Find a place to chat alone."
Martin nodded: "Okay."
The three of them walked towards the open space together.
Bratton was the first to speak: "On behalf of the police, I would like to express my gratitude to you, Martin, for preventing a vicious case from developing into a more cruel direction."
Martin told the truth: "Actually, I am also afraid of fear, and I also want to protect myself."
Bratton added: "I watched a video. You were very brave. You knocked down the vicious gangster at the most appropriate time and in the most appropriate way."
Martin asked specifically: "My shot was a bit heavy, will there be any trouble?"
"Trouble? How is it possible!" With so many witnesses at the scene, Bratton knew that the matter would inevitably spread. He emphasized: "You are a hero in Los Angeles! I will write a special report on this matter and submit it to the mayor's office and City Council!"
Martin understood very well, stopped and said proactively: "Actually, I also want to express my gratitude to the LAPD."
Bratton and McClain stopped, confused for a moment what Martin was going to do.
Martin said very seriously: "At that time, Boo, my manager, and I were trapped in the corridor by gangsters with automatic weapons. It was the LAPD who rushed in and rescued us in time. As far as I am concerned, the LAPD is the hero." .”
McClain was stunned for a moment. The director had just laid the groundwork, but before he, the person in charge of Guan Gong, could speak, the person on the other side not only raised his hands in surrender, but also shouted that we are a family.
This man is so wise!
After doing such a heroic feat, shouldn't we be unruly and arrogant to the point of being arrogant?
Bratton reacted super quickly and said: "This is the responsibility of the LAPD. Martin, on behalf of all LAPD police officers, I invite you to visit the police headquarters."
Martin went on a special trip: "I will definitely come to express my gratitude in person!"
Today, he can't get away with this matter. While he benefits, there is no harm in establishing a good relationship with the LAPD, the largest gang in Los Angeles.
Bratton shook hands with Martin vigorously: "LAPD never treats its friends badly."
McClain said: "Shall we talk about it specifically?"
Martin said: "I'll call the agent and you can discuss this matter with him."
McClain nodded: "Okay."
Martin took out his cell phone and made a call.
Bratton asked: "What do you think?"
"A very smart and sensible young man." McClain tried to remain objective so as not to affect his boss's judgment: "He will definitely become a hero of this city, and we will also push behind him to attract the public and public opinion with his deeds. Pay attention and reduce our stress.”
Bratton nodded: "Yes, since he is willing to cooperate, our work will be less troublesome. Also, you can deal with the reporters from Warner TV."
"Leave it to me," McClain said.
Martin came back from the phone call, said a few words, and then returned to the car.
The police still have many aftermath matters to deal with.
Especially in terms of public opinion.
On the bus side, many cheerleading girls and their parents came.
As soon as Blake Lively saw Martin, he rushed over and hugged him hard. His eyelashes were wet with tears. He ran his hands up and down to make sure Martin was not injured. He choked and said: "You're okay, you're okay, great!" You went out to rescue Lao Bu with a gun, you scared me to death..."
Martin patted her back gently and comforted: "It's all over. We are safe."
A middle-aged man came behind Blake.
Martin wanted to let go of Blake, but Blake held on to him and still touched him up and down, as if to prove that he was unharmed.
Ernie Lively said: "Blake!"
Black then let go of Martin, took two steps back, and introduced, "This is my father."
Martin shook his hand: "Mr. Lively."
Ernie shook hands with him solemnly: "You saved my daughter and my family, thank you."
Martin said: "You're welcome, Blake and I are friends."
Ernie took out his personal business card and handed it to Martin: "You should have heard of me. If you need anything, just give me a call."
Martin exchanged business cards with him, said a few polite words, and Ernie left with his daughter.
Blake turned back three times with each step, his eyes filled with stars.
There is no way, a girl of 17 or 18 years old, how can she handle this kind of person and this kind of thing.
Leonardo and Jack have been forgotten by Blake, and her only idol is Martin.
Then, Judith and her parents, as well as girls and family members that Martin couldn't name, came over to express their gratitude to Martin one by one.
Martin gained a lot of favor and favor from people.
Both Burbank Middle School and Hall Middle School in North Hollywood are among the top private middle schools in California. Students who can attend such schools are not from ordinary families.
Martin knew very well that these favors could be used at least once.
"Sister, Martin is there." Elizabeth held a woman nearly half a head shorter than her on her left and right hands. "Without Martin, I would probably be lying in the ambulance."
Ashley and Mary also expressed their gratitude to Martin.
Elizabeth came over, but threw herself into Martin's arms and cried.
Martin's face was full of innocence, and he opened his arms to show that he had done nothing.
Mary was about to step forward, but Ashley held her back: "Let her cry. Just go back and sleep after crying."
"Sorry." Mary pointed at Elizabeth: "She was too frightened."
Bruce, a bad guy, was sitting in the back of an ambulance, watching the play with great interest. The more he watched, the more exciting it became.
He glanced at the Olsen sisters, and then shook his head. These two ribs were obviously not Martin's cup of tea.
"I'm definitely not to blame for what happened to Kohler!" Bruce found sufficient reasons and excuses for his own bad behavior: "It's all Martin's fault. It's this bad guy who infected and taught me bad things!"
Elizabeth is leaving with her sisters.
Martin advised: "Go back early and have a good rest."
Elizabeth asked, "When are you going to Louise's?"
"I'll contact you when I go," Martin said.
"I'll go find you then." Elizabeth was taken away by her sisters.
Martin came to Old Boo, took the water he handed him, opened it and took a sip, then he saw Thomas.
The agent hurried over.
Coming with him was someone who was quite surprising to Martin.
Louise, wearing black-rimmed glasses and professional attire, walked over quickly, looked at Martin briefly, and said casually: "It's fine."
Martin deliberately showed the wound on his hand that was smeared with iodophor: "I'm injured!"
Thomas said from the side: "You are going to scare me to death!"
Martin got down to business: "After I told you, you negotiate with the LAPD on public opinion matters, so go ahead."
Toolman Thomas hurried to work.
Martin looked at Louise and smiled at her.
Louise said: "What, I will come unexpectedly? Don't forget, the formula you owe me has not been paid off yet!" She snorted coldly: "If you don't pay off the debt, do you want to die? How can it be so cheap. "
The second update will be later
