Warning: Spoilers
Contains DISCLAIMER.

When Friday and Gannon report early for work, their Captain tells them that a large quantity of dynamite was stolen from a construction site and the thieves threw a hand grenade at the night watchman which, due to a damp primer, didn't go off. Upon arriving at the construction site, Friday and Gannon obtain the licence plate number of the crime vehicle from the night watchman which was eventually traced to one of the suspects. The site engineer stated the amount of explosives stolen was 400 pounds of high-velocity gelatin dynamite that could level two city blocks. The blasting caps stolen along with the dynamite were electrical, which the thieves may not have been be aware of. Getting too close to radio signals, electrical transmission lines, etc, could set them off. When Friday and Gannon tried to interrogate one of the suspects at his apartment, they got nowhere. The suspect kept asking for the time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- . _______________________________________________
