While using the newly commissioned Riot van Springhill we came across a train with a very suspicious name. Turns out my suspicions were correct, as "Bootlegger" was hauling artifacts. I popped off a few shots at him, and once officer Kimble, and a recruit showed up he became more cooperative. He cut his engines and listened while we informed him of the laws on Artifacts and the consequences for shipping them. Apparently paying a fine was just too much for him to handle, so he went to cruise and plummeted into the surface of planet Houston. Some evidence was collected and taken to storage lockers on Manhattan, the rest was destroyed on the spot. In total there were 3000 units.
I returned to my patrol ship and we made a complete circuit of New York. Remarkably uneventful, all we did was hand out a parking ticket.
