NEW VERONA SPECIAL REPORT
Ro Montague, a drug lord recently freed from custody by a group of anarchists, is still at large. However, chief of police Emir Prince would like to assure the public that his force is doing everything in its power to end the Montague reign of terror in southern New Verona.
Wait, this just in.
It seems that Emir Prince's forces have surrounded a secret compound where the anarchists have been basing their operations. Through severe interrogation methods of Officer Benvolio, alias "Benny", they have finally tracked down their leader.
Anarchist leader, Lawrence Fry, has agreed to go peacefully with the police.
No, wait... it seems that Lawrence Fry is resisting arrest. On the grounds that he has to deliver a message to Ro Montague!
Well, Emir Prince made short work of that arrest. Don't worry, citizens. Lawrence Fry has been successfully apprehended. The anarchist ring that released Ro Montague has been shut down, and those that have gone into hiding shall soon be found out.
This has been your New Verona Special Report. Remember, citizens, keep an eye out for Ro Montague.
