Good day Sir,

Today was a very busy day. Myself and Constable Mr. Smith manage to apprehend 4 smugglers in a very short time.

It started when I noticed a name from a recent Report, from Constable Mr. Smith, in which he had caught a Smuggler of Gaian Wildlife ((Synth)Saccharine). I decided to see if I could find this Ship which was in New London. I sat near the New London to Cambridge Jump Gate waiting for it to turn up. Next thing it was in Cambridge and so I jumped through the Gate. I contacted Constable Mr. Smith and told him that I might need some help. In the mean time I travelled down the Trade Lane to Cardiff hoping to catch the quarry on Scanners. Half way down the Trade Lane, playing on a hunch, I cut out of the Lane and cut towards the Jump Hole to Omega 3. I kept Constable Mr. Smith of my whereabouts and my hunch. My hunch paid dividends as I soon caught on Scanners the quarry. Once I was close enough I told the quarry to cut his engines. At first he didn’t, but as I started to get closer, he obviously decided that he wasn’t going to get away and cut his engines. As I approached I noticed that there were 1060 Gaian Wildlife floating in Space.

At this time another ship appeared on my Scanners (Aristotle) and seeing it was quite away from the Trade Lanes I gave the command for it to cut its engines. Seeing it was about 8k away I was very surprised that it complied (wonders will never cease!). At this time Constable Mr. Smith also came on Scanners and so I directed him to investigate the second Ship whilst I carried on with the first one. (Synth)Saccharine paid the fine and was escorted to Cardiff where he dropped of the Gaian Wildlife. At this time a BAF Officer (John.Locke) turned up and joined me as I returned to Constable Mr.Smith.

On the way back I was contacted by Constable Mr. Smith and told that that the Captain of the Aristotle seemed to be reluctant to drop his cargo. But unluckily for him we turned up shortly afterwards and I think that the Captain decided that discretion was the best of valour and promptly complied to all the demands.

On our way back to the Trade Lane we were all discussing how we had managed to catch 2 Smugglers in such a short time when suddenly I picked up a Junker Ship (.:j:.Chaotic_Assumption), on TLAGSNET, carrying Arifacts travelling through Cambridge. As luck would have it he was heading straight to where we were about to join the Trade Lane. I disrupted the Trade Lane and a few seconds later the Junker appeared on scanners and was then dropped out of the Trade Lane. After a conversation he dropped the Artifacts and paid the fine. He was very compliant and was no trouble at all.
We escorted him to the Jump Gate to New London and bid him a safe journey.

About 7 minutes later, once we were, back in New London and heading towards Newcastle a TLAGSNET signal reported that a Ship (GalaxyTrader) was carrying Gaian Wildlife. Myself and John Locke jumped in to Newcastle but it must have been at the same time as he jumped in to New London. After a bit of a chase we Constable Mr. Smith managed to corner the ship at the Jump Gate to Cambridge. The Captain was compliant, but that was after a half-hearted attempt at a Bribe. He paid his fine and was escorted to Planet New London where the Gaian Wildlife was dropped off.

All in all it was a very good evening and we managed to catch 4 Smugglers.

Yours
