INSPECTOR’S RAPORT

Be advised, a special group led by me arrived at the scene of the operation at 2:15 a.m. because of the accident at Mishen Street, 16. The detour took 15 minutes.

Having come, we found the lawbreakers. The robbers hid in the living room and opened fire on the police, we had to shoot back. One of the robbers is dead, the rest managed to escape. The pictures were not found.

Two policemen are dead. A corpse of a Japanese man was found not far from the construction site, 200 meters from the millionaire's mansion. The identity is being established.

WITNESS STATEMENTS
The only witness, an 80-year-old neighbor of the millionaire, didn’t notice anything suspicious.

“I couldn’t sleep, wore my hearing aid and turned on the TV. Suddenly, I heard Lola, my shepherd, barking, and it was kind of unusual. There is a construction site nearby, noise all day long, she sleeps in her kennel and doesn’t move an ear.
She is exactly like me: old and deaf. I went upstairs, took a gun, and came outside to see what had worried her. Lola was sitting by the kennel, everything was quiet. I took a sleeping pill and went to bed. And then you came, and I found out what had happened."

Preliminary Report About Causes of Death

On the basis of a forensic examination of a white man's corpse and data from primary laboratory tests, I can conclude that the man's age is about 30 years old.

Allergic marks were found on the body: skin rash, swelling of the nasal mucosa. The death came presumably from a bullet wound in the chest at about 2:30 a.m.
