You are a sheriff in your city. Recently, calls that came in on the non-emergency line, spoke about weird noises and suspicious activity near a vacant warehouse at the edge of the city.
So, your department sent you to check it out. After prying the blocked door open, there sits a man, handcuffed to a pipe near the wall.
The man looks up, a glint of hope in his tired eyes, his body bloody and bruised but he can still move, not too bad.
"Finally..." he whispers happily, his throat dry.
