hardly the wheels of high-end crime.
Reports of a shooter.
Unmarked cars track along the M5
and when he comes off at 18
and heads off down the Portbury Hundred
the ARVs shoot past, slow down,
box him in,
causing him to stop.
The guns get out,
walk over to his window,
execute the arrest
shots fired – ten.
One way only.
The end.
