Drive to the crime scene.

When you arrive at Hoelcher’s Textiles , you meet Oswald Jacobs, the security guard here at Hoelcher’s Textiles.

Subdue the armed robbery suspects.

Your partner is covering to the right of the large warehouse entrance. Cover the left side. Look inside to see a group of gunmen talking. Five appear on the mini-map, indicated by red blips. Swing out from cover and shoot as many of them as you can before they settle into cover. Try to take down at least one before they scramble.

From this position, you should be able to take out the three closest gunmen. Try repositioning yourself at the front of the truck sticking out of the warehouse opening. From there, you can get a better angle on the third closest gunman.

When the opportunity presents itself, rush in and take cover behind the nearest structural column on the right.

From this position, you should be able to take out the remaining two men. The hardest target is the one in the back room. However, it is possible to place the reticle on what little of his head he exposes while covered and performing blind fires.

As soon as all five gunmen on the map are dead, another one pops up. He appears to be in the same back room. On your way there, pick up a dropped machine gun. If the last enemy doesn’t rush down the stairs immediately, enter the back room while in a manual aim stance and trace the reticle up the stairs. The final enemy is usually on the steps. Gun him down to complete the case.
