Before Ray could breach the door, the sound of charging footsteps and shouting echoed down the corridor.
“Federal agents! Drop your weapon and put your hands behind your back!” Detective Brooks’s voice rang out clearly.
A violent struggle ensued in the hallway as multiple officers tackled Ray Henderson to the ground.
Heavy thuds and metallic clinks echoed through the door before the area fell into heavy, regulated silence.

Daniel let out a long, shuddering breath, lowering the makeshift weapon as the adrenaline slowly faded from his veins.
