From Recruit Officer Elias Vand: Incident report

As I departed from Planet Manhattan to begin my first patrol of the night, my sensors picked up what appeared to be two hostile contacts. Billy.Bob and his fighter escort. On an open channel, I proceeded to warn a nearby merchant vessel of possible criminal activity near by. Billy.Bob was monitoring communications near Manhattan, and immediately responded by announcing his intentions to attack Law Enforcement in the area. Billy.Bob and his now multiple fighter escorts' were on an intercept course with my ship. I immediately engaged in police action, closing the distance between myself and the fighter escorts. I destroyed the first escort with little effort, still this did not dissuade Billy.Bob who over an open channel gave his final order to "engage" my ship. I responded by destroying his second fighter escort. By this time Billy.Bob had gotten within such a close range I could see he was commanding a pirate gun ship. I knew I could not take him head on, so I devised a plan to lure him into the defense net of Newark station. I headed strait for Billy.Bob full thrusters, as soon as he fired his missiles and torpedo's I knew he had taken the bait. I did a hard 180 degree turn dropped several countermeasures and then used the thruster to get within range of Newark. My plan worked perfectly, Billy.Bob was under heavy assault from Newark and a friendly Police patrol that was passing through the area. He immediately proclaimed I was not of any value to him, even though he had previously committed to attacking me without provocation. Billy.Bob was clearly trying to escape from being destroyed, and seemed a little embarrassed. I could not catch him before he escaped, so I made it clear to him that the New York system is heavily defended, and his criminal activity would not be tolerated. After voicing his disdain for Liberty authorities, he left the area.
