OVERVIEW
The purpose of this report is to provide details on the search warrant operation conducted at the Starfish Manor, Property #1, Starfish Island, Vice City, owned by Carlos Lehder. The raid was performed with the help of multiple members of the Vice City Police Department, the VCPD Special Weapons and Tactics team, and one envoy of the Federal Bureau of Investigation sent from Washington D.C.


1. BRIEFING & PLANNING
The briefing took place at the Little Havana Police Department, where multiple members of the Vice City Police Department had gathered in order to prepare a plan for the search warrant. The following were present and took part in the operation:

Branislav, Dvorak - FBI Agent Adams, Gabriel - VCPD Chief of Police Collingwood, Steven - VCPD Sergeant, SWAT Operative Collingwood, Jay - VCPD Senior Officer, SWAT Operative 'XkillerX' - VCPD Officer Mikdad, Nahian - VCPD Cadet 'radon' - VCPD Cadet 'bNk.' - ARPD Officer

As Sergeant Collingwood attempted to come up with a plan, I raised my hand and recommended a quiet approach via an amphibious insertion. I then went to the blackboard to sketch a simple architectural plan of the Starfish Manor, showing a few key points and a possible back entrance through an underground tunnel. The plan was the following: A team of two men would perform an amphibious insertion via two Predator boats, which would've been provided by VCPD's Coast Guard. The team would then have to infiltrate the mansion through the underground tunnel, reach the main room ( located on the first floor ), deactivate the CCTV system and retrieve the keys for the front door. With the front door unlocked, a convoy of SWAT Operatives and Officers stationed near the Starfish Island western bridge would quickly gather in front of the mansion and set up a perimeter. The operatives would rush through the front door to perform a search on the mansion ( the property was being raided due to the storage of weapons tied to a criminal offense ), while the officers would prevent any trespassers.

The teams were designated:

• ALPHA: Amphibious Insertion Team ( FBI Agent Dvorak, VCPD Sergeant Collingwood )
• BRAVO: Storm & Search Team ( Chief Adams, VCPD Senior Officer Collingwood )
• CHARLIE: Perimeter Security Team ( VCPD Officer XkillerX, VCPD Cadet Nahian, VCPD Cadet radon, ARPD Officer bNk. )

2. INFILTRATION

The weather was extremely cloudy, accompanied by a small layer of fog, which allowed us to draw less attention in the amphibious insertion.

At about 1217 hours, team ALPHA boarded a Police Maverick on the helicopter pad of the Little Havana Police Department. The Police Maverick headed south-west and landed at the Coast Guard Depot. Me and Sergeant Collingwood entered the depot and picked two Predator patrol boats. Team BRAVO and CHARLIE gathered a convoy near the Starfish Island western bridge and waited for our part of the operation to be over.

At 1219 hours, team ALPHA tuned in to radio frequency 315.419 in order to establish a stable connection between the operatives. At the same time, the Predator fleet departed from the Coast Guard Depot, heading towards Starfish Island.

At 1221 hours, I ordered a stop under the Vice Port bridge. I took out a PSG-1 scoped rifle and mounted a bipod on the ledge of the Predator boat. I scouted the back area of the Starfish Manor for any possible hostiles ( none were detected ). After a complete search, we resumed our voyage.

At 1223 hours, ALPHA team docked at the Starfish Manor jetty. We slowly approached and inspected the area. A black Maverick was stationed in front of the jetty, however, it was locked. After giving a 'clear' signal to Sergeant Collingwood, we made our way through the back garden's foliage. We soon managed to get into the mansion's underground tunnel. However, one CCTV camera was positioned on the hallway. I inspected Collingwood's belt for any smoke grenades, which carried six. I took one, unpinned it and tossed it down the hallway in order to allow us to pass through undetected. At 1229 hours, we successfully infiltrated the mansion. We found a basement room that we slowly approached and inspected. The room appeared to host a large weapons cache and the skin of a dead ogra.

We then followed a system of stairs which was connected to the entire mansion. We made our way to the first floor. The door which led to the first floor hallway was, to our surprise, unlocked. However, there was another CCTV camera down the hallway. Collingwood tossed another smoke grenade and we made our way under the CCTV camera. There, I tapped into the circuit of the camera and disabled it.

At 1233 hours, we approached the manor's main hall. I took out a silenced Glock 17 pistol and aimed at one of the CCTV cameras in the hall. One shot was enough to disable it. Collingwood attached a silencer to his H&K MP5K and used it to take out another camera. I then disabled the last camera by tapping it, as it was positioned near us.

A strange sound seemed to come from the main room's entrance. I equipped a pair of thermal goggles and discovered that the entrance to the main room had a laser alarm system set up. I inspected the circuits connected to the lasers and tracked the panel under the stairs. On my way there, I had to disable another CCTV camera by shooting it. I had to get through a security check in order to disable the laser system, which I successfully managed to hack through.

With the laser system disabled, I entered the main room and disabled the CCTV system completely. I picked up a keyring from a glass table and attempted to open the front door for BRAVO. The third key successfully unlocked the doors at 1242 hours. However, BRAVO was experiencing technical difficulties and we had to stay put until further notice.


3. BRAVO INSERTION

At 1255 hours, BRAVO and CHARLIE approached the mansion and formed a perimeter around it. I opened the doors for BRAVO, which carefully entered the mansion. I pointed Adams and Senior Officer Collingwood towards the basement room hosting the weapons cache. On further inspection, no illegal items were found. However, due to the nature of the raid, all the weapons were seized. The munitions were done packaging at 1305 hours.



Sergeant Collingwood and I picked up one crate each and carried it to the Predator boats. We then headed to the jetty situated near the construction site, near the Washington Beach Police Department. BRAVO departed via helicopter and CHARLIE escorted the Enforcer carrying most of the munitions to the Washington Beach Police Department.

After docking, we designated an LZ for BRAVO to pick us up from the jetty area. The BRAVO helicopter picked us up at 1310 hours. We then headed to the Washington Beach Police Department to store the remaining munitions in the evidence locker. We finished storing all the crates at 1313 hours, marking the end of the operation.

OPERATION STARFISH JEWEL

Date: 30th April, 2018
Participants:
Gabriel Adams (Chief/High Command, SWAT), Steven Collingwood (Sergeant/ Operative, SWAT), Jimmy Collingwood (Officer/Operative, SWAT), XkillerX (Officer), Nahian (Cadet), Radon (Cadet), Pyro (ARPD), Bnk (ARPD), Dvorak (FBI, Washington DC div)
Duration: Approximately an hour
Location: Stafish Manor, Starfish Island


The Starfish Manor is one of the most luxurious landmarks in the city of Vice, considered the jewel of the city by many. Little did most people know, that it is also a harbor for criminal acts.

On 30th April, 2018, Vice City Police Department, in cooperation with the Federal Bureau of Investigations Washington DC division and supported by the VCPD Special Weapons and Tactics Team, executed a raid warrant execution operation "Jewel of Vice". A search warrant on Starfish Manor issued by the Courts of Vice City has been conducted.

To give more context on the lead ups to the operation, civilian Carlos Lehder, the alleged owner of the manor, has been seen storing weapons in the mentioned property while being wanted by the police, effectively making the property an accessory to a crime. For this reason, even though the operation did not find any illegal items, a great amount of otherwise weapons have been confiscated from the manor.

Operation commenced late at night. FBI, supported by SWAT, conducted an amphibious insertion into the manor, bypassing the security measures and disabling CCTV cameras and security lasers. Once that has been done, SWAT and VCPD units standing by have been alerted, swiftly storming the manner and conducting the warrant. The confiscated items have then been successfully moved to Washington Beach evidence locker, where they have been locked, ready to be destroyed.

Great work!

Current script limitations of the raid script requires an FBI agent to be present. Seeing how FBI is currently un-operational and under-going script and otherwise changes, members of administration fill in that place when required to raid someone.

Yes, that also means that NAR warlord Klaus goes on FBI duty if we need to conduct a raid and no-one else from administration is present.

Who is Hype

Hype is love.
Hype is life.
Hype is actually everything.
