Nelson's case

A few days ago we were in Cali, a vivid Colombian city. It was smashing hot, but the burning sun didn't stop us from climbing the mountains to ultimately get a view over the city.
During the hefty hike, we met Nelson. He opened his bag showing a badge and a gun, explaining to us that he was an off-duty police inspector. When we reached the top of the hill, he convinced us to do some push ups and sit ups, we took some pictures and eventually prepared for the descent.
Exhibit A of the robbery investigation: double barrel shotgun

When we walked down, fate decided to strike. 6 armed and screaming guys suddenly appeared, pointing their guns at all possible random body parts. At one moment, a shotgun was pointed at Dimitri's... shotgun.


They took our wallets, sunglasses, money, camera and cellphone. Dimitri asked for his identity card, but one of the guys just called him a "ya motherfuckkah". That guy had no manners whatsoever! Even Nelson lost his belongings to the bastards. Of course, when they found out that Nelson was a cop, things got a little bit tense and a few things that surely weren't meant were yelled our way. In the end though, the three of us walked away and lived happily ever after.

Nelson drove us to his office, where we met his colleagues and where we did the necessary paper work.

We have full confidence in the investigative skills of Nelson and his team and expect our stuff to be found any time now.

Good luck, Nelson!
Graham & Dimitri

"Good luck Dimitri and Graham" sounds more appropriate!
Wish I could get my hands (even with my damaged finger) on these guys and bring the Belgian police with me for reinforcement of Nelson and his crew.
We have launched an worldwide search and international arrest warrant

Sounds like there must be a Colombian Doctor Moriarity behind this somewhere. Better ask the police to bring in Sherlock Holmes! In the meantime I'm sending down the Reservoir Dogs.
