The strike he had delivered knocked the lieutenant out cold. He yanked him across the hood of the car and let him fall to the ground. Ray took the cuffs from the back of Lieutenant Kane’s belt and linked his wrists behind his back. The lieutenant was scooped from the ground and carried to the trunk of the Lexus. Ray opened it up and flopped his body in.
Ray stared in at the cop. It could be a problem. The last blow to the lieutenant ripped a gash down his forehead. It would be hard to get past another officer without him asking what happened. He slammed the lid.
Ray looked over the lot for anything that could lead back to him. It was no use. There was blood everywhere. He grabbed the stun gun, computer and the lieutenant’s pistol. He tossed them in the Lexus. Ray pulled the knife from his pocket and went back to the Corvette. He went to his knees at the rear of the car and then dropped to his back. Ray pulled his lighter from his pocket and flicked it underneath the car.
