On the phone, “Someone just held up the Animal Shelter, shot the Pound attendant, and took our computers and radios. They are gone and I am fine. Send the police and an aid car, hurry.”
The 911 Center sends the help and the Commander calls in the homicide detectives.
Minutes later, the aid car leaves the shelter as the squad car pulls in. Officer Jones checks on the people in the office and they go to the Pound where the shooting occurred.
“I don’t hear any barking! They took all the animals; did they gas them first?”
Jones tapes the doors, and no one goes in until the police team checks it out.
Back in the office they find everything has been taken. All the records of the animals, radios, computers, and phones. Outside they find that three utility poles have been cut down and all the wire taken.
In Inspector Strong’s office, “They took everything, records, file cabinets, equipment, wires, but left the chairs.”
He nods, “OK, what did they come for? They took everything to misdirect us.”
Detective Rage says, “They did a good job. They shot Pound keeper; he may not make it. The Shelter has no phones. The manager will route all the calls to the Emergence Center where he will set up a temporary call center for the Shelter.”
Detective Smith says, “We will have a complete inventory of what they took. The obvious thing is they wanted an animal or two. So, they took them all.”
In a week they are no closer to solving the case, officer Jones asks, “What is the least important thing they took?”
Rage answers, “The phones.”
“But they also cut the phone lines down and took the wire.”
The Inspector nods, “We have no idea what if any animal they wanted. Chase down the phone connection, but they did get a direct line into the Emergence Center when the Pound moved their call center in there. I will call the Commander and tell him of our concerns.”
Is this one of the few cases the Inspector will not solve?
