[center] [h2] Day 3 [/h2] [sup] [hr] [/sup] [/center] [indent] The news of a violent shootout is the talk of Chiavo this morning. Stories from eyewitnesses spread even before any newspaper or TV broadcast can. And how can they not? A team of dozen elite SWAT officers stormed the property of a high-ranking syndicate member. Helicopters, armored vans, batteting rams, a swirl of lights and sirens accompanied several minutes of gunfire. By the end of it, two police officers are dead, three are injured, and Leonardo Valentino's bullet-ridden corpse is taken away to the morgue. Early in the morning, two moles within the syndicate are summoned to Chiavo PD headquarters. There, they find their handlers in a celebratory mood, despite having officers killed in the line of duty just hours ago. They claim victory is imminent; the Crogiolo leadership is sufficiently dismantled to the point that only two high-profile members are remaining. The moles' final assignment today is to capture these two criminals, dead or alive. Sweeping up the street thugs after that will only be a matter time. The end of organized crime in Chiavo is within sight. Each with many police officers and informants as backup, the moles get to work taking down their former comrades. [/indent]
