Trip Hazard:
Trip nodded.
"Yeah, I wanna come in."
This was good. This was real good. This was a definite improvement over what he was imagining this stage of the investigation to be like. He stepped inside, but remained on his guard: just cos she was a lady didn't mean she wasn't going to try and hurt him. They kept saying he should stop thinking that witnesses are suspects, but in his experience the two were one and the same.
Remain on guard, ask questions about what she saw. Make sure to note inconsistencies.
You walk inside and start asking questions. (2+1) “You said you spotted the vandalism of Arthur Rich Guy’s house Saturday night?”
“Yes I did.”
“Can you describe who did it?”
“Well I saw a couple of people with spray cans and stuff head toward the house. A couple of minutes later I heard a smash but thought it wasn’t anything.”
“Can you describe the people?”
“It was dark and I was slightly drunk, but I was taking pictures. Do you want to see them?”

Name: Trip Hazard
Side: Cop
Affiliation/Job: Cop on the beat.
Bio: Trip never played by the rules, even in Police Academy where he managed to take down a criminal gang of drug dealers with just a stun gun when he was meant to be studying. He never wears the correct uniform (even dressing up for Casual Friday) and he believes the only thing a criminal deserves is a bullet to the head. Of course, this makes him massively unpopular with the force and he has only remained on the force due to extreme string pulling from his politician brother, and even then he's never getting a promotion.

Bryson was robbed two days ago, and this morning the grocer found a note pinned by a knife to the wall sayiing that he better pay up or worse will happen to him. Now I have to run."
