Tonight, Rebel News had the exclusive coverage of a situation between a group that calls themselves the "Red Regime" and the Police Force.
From the first look, all we could gather was that they had acquired a hostage on top of a shipping container and were making demands for something, meeting with police officers.
Later on, we had the opportunity to meet with Group Leaders, who told us about their demands and why.
Not to quote exact words but the general idea was that they had loaded the S.S Bulker with Explosives with the intention's to explode them and damage the Los Santos Supply Chain if the police could not provide them with a "Deacon Nash" believed to have killed one of the regime's leaders brothers.
The police claimed they could not deliver Nash.
After protracted rounds of negotiations between Lead Investigator Jeremy Crane and the Regime leadership, it was determined that a different officer had killed his brother in action due to the officer's safety during a firefight, the leadership decided that if the police could bring them the remains or ashes of there brother that they would cancel the explosion. Police then worked immediately to locate the remains of said man “Olaf” and returned the remains to the regime.
Once the police returned to safe locations within seconds the Regime detonated the explosives causing damage to the port and capsizing the S.S Bulker.
Being the only reporter on the scene I myself feared for my safety and then fled from the scene.
If you take a look at the Notice the Regime gave the police forces and the statement they made to us they made it seem that they were aiming for a peaceful resolution. As we can see that did not happen.

After they went against the deal made in good faith.
Sgt Crane is then quoted to say “If I could deliver a message to the regime I would say “We will find you and when we do you are all looking at life in prison or worst”
This riveting statement from Sgt Crane shows how tense the mood was at the port this evening.
Please stay tuned for possible updates in the case.
