I Am Wrath

We're following a series of shootings in Columbus.

The daytime gun battle on a busy street caught on camera.

Get out of the car!

Shocking new video tonight that you'll only see here.

Put your hands down!

Get off the bike.

Get off the bike.

Put your hands up!

There's a new effort today

to try to stop all the gang related violence in our city.

Police have made some arrests

after the killing of yet another teenager on a Columbus street.

Summer police are dealing with an unsettling spike

in violent crime.

Spokesperson for Governor Meserve says that

these shootings are not random acts of violence.

Quote: "What I want to let everyone at home know

is that these are targeted acts of criminals..."

I'm sorry. I'm getting some breaking news.

Word that a protest...

We're hearing that a protest we were covering

has escalated into violence. We're gonna go live now to...

The police have identified three shooting victims

found behind the sheetrock of an apartment building

that's undergoing a remodel.

Tragically, we can now confirm that one of the victims

was an undercover police officer killed in the line of duty.

Hundreds attended the solemn funeral procession

of slain officer Hernandez earlier today.

In his eulogy,

Governor Meserve continues to stress that crime is down.

In fact, quote: "hype and hysteria are up."

This summer has seen a 24% increase in shootings

over the last year.

We are just receiving some alarming news right now.

A shootout is actually erupting. That's happening...

Where's this happening?

Right now, we're receiving word of a police chase

that's going on on Interstate 75.

He actually might spin out here.

There are officers, you guys, right behind him.

All right, it looks like we're coming to a stop out here.

The guy is getting out of the vehicle.

The guy is getting out of the vehicle. He's got a gun.

He's got a gun.

He just got into a van.

This could end very badly out here. He's gesturing.

Oh, this is not good.

This is now a hostage situation. The person trying to get out...

Oh no, he's being dragged.

A guy is being dragged.

This has now turned into a hostage situation.

Violent crime has increased 18% this year

with a significant spike in shootings.

Over 300 shootings this year

with close to 50 gun related deaths.

Local police say that an abundance of illegal guns

in the hands of gang members are the cause.

Well, John, the sheriff has yet to release

an official statement.

But an inside source has told me that this horrific shooting

is very likely another gang initiation.

Governor Meserve returned to Columbus today

for a campaign rally where he continued to stress

that crime is in fact down across the state.

I am just being told right now that the third shooting victim

has been pronounced dead upon arrival at County Hospital.

Police have released security cam footage of the suspect.

A warning to our viewers...

These images may be difficult for some.

In less than four years,

we've cut this state's homicide rate nearly in half.

Robbery rate, a third.

Vandalism, auto theft, crime is down.

But don't ask me.

Mom!

Look. It's your new boss.

Have we pushed drugs and gangs out of our neighborhoods?

Together, we've called out the corrupt.

And together, we'll keep going into the future.

What about the Pipeline?

Well as I've always maintained, the Corner Turn oil line

would be a boon to this state's economy.

Clean water is a human right.

That's why my office

has commissioned its own environmental review

to compare with the E.P.A.'s audit.

Mom.

Mom! Look, you're famous!

They're talking about your project.

I'm not famous. I'm just checking the numbers

for the secretary of somebody famous.

Cuz apparently famous people cannot do their own math.

Thank you.

Hey.

Hey, hey, hey.

Look at you. What, did you lie out?

A little.

Damn. I should go away more often. Hi.

I missed you, Stan.

So, how did it work out with your boss?

Not so good.

Well, what do you mean?

I want to hear about you first.

Tell me everything. How did it go?

Okay. I'm just saying it was awesome.

Those headquarters, it's the real deal.

I loved it.

Oh my god, baby.

Well, so...

So he said I'll call you.

And I said, "what the hell does that mean, we'll call you?'

And he said, "Stan, I'll see you soon. Real soon."

So does that mean you got the job?

I don't know. Maybe.

Oh, that would be so amazing.

I know. California, baby.

Abbie and Mike could come visit. Bring Jimmy to Disneyland.

I know. It would be so cool. It'd be awesome.

Where'd you park? Wait, where did I...

I thought I parked... It's 3G.

Yeah. Ah-hah.

There you go.

Ah, shit.

Man.

Oh my God. How'd that happen?

Should I call Triple A?

No. I'll do it.

You sure?

Yeah.

Excuse me, ma'am?

Excuse me?

I'm late for my flight. I've got my kid waiting in the lobby.

I just need three more bucks for my ticket.

Not today.

Come on, man. She's about to give it to me.

Get in the car.

Not today.

For real?

For real.

Seriously?

Seriously. Just,

just back off. Okay?

Stan!

Come on! Let's go! Let's go!

Come on!

Mr. Hill,

I'm Detective Gilmore. Columbus Metro P.D.

How's that cut?

Huh?

Cut on your forehead.

Forehead bleeds a lot. It gets in your eyes and...

But you still got a good look at the suspect?

Yes. I saw him before he hit me.

But there was more than one. There...

How many?

Well I just, just heard them. But were like two or three.

Did you get a look at the vehicle?

No, I just heard that too. I just kinda...

It sounded like the rumble of a hemi engine,

you know maybe a 60's muscle car or something like that.

I used to rebuild engines since I was a kid.

And I'm a plant manager for Chrysler. Well, I was.

Now Honda, maybe.

Where's that sketch artist?

I'll get him.

Mr. Hill, this is my partner, Detective Walker.

He's gonna ask you a few more questions.

Sir.

I can't even imagine what you must be going through.

But you know every little detail is gonna get us closer

to the people that did this.

And it's best to do this when the memory's fresh.

Sorry.

I make this speech way too often.

Mr. Hill, what was the state of your marriage?

Were you getting along?

What the hell kind of question is that?

It's just a standard one, sir.

Are you married, detective?

Was.

Didn't work out.

Well then you don't know. You just don't know.

I don't know what I'm gonna do without you.

I'm gonna miss you so much.

I love you.

Dad.

Hi, baby.

You know...

The day you were coming home, she was driving me nuts.

Oh yeah, why?

She had to get a whole new outfit.

She wanted...

She wanted tan lines

cuz she thought they were sexy.
