L.A. Noire Guide › Street Crimes › Traffic

11: Army Surplus

KGPL requests assistance for an officer at 540 West 9th St at Uncle Sam’s Army Surplus.

Objectives

  • Subdue the armed robbery suspects.

Fail Conditions

  • Phelps or Bekowsky dies.

Time Available: 08:00—16:00

Drive to the crime scene.

When you arrive at Uncle Sam’s Army Surplus , a scene unfolds in which the arresting officer is holding two robbers at gunpoint. The drunken storeowner then comes out waving a gun. This distraction gives the robbers just enough time to pull weapons out and gun down both the cop and the storeowner. All this happens as you make your way toward the scene through the store.

Subdue the armed robbery suspects.

As soon as the action starts, your partner runs out the back door and starts laying down suppressing fire. Remain in the building and take cover behind the open doorway. Swing out and shoot the robber on the right. Gun him down and swing back to cover behind the doorway.

The remaining gunman takes cover behind parked vehicles or the short wall. Swing out and use manual aim to pop him in the noggin when he reaches out to blind fire. Gunning down both men ends the case successfully.
