Smack! The lifeless mosquito falls to the ground as the man’s hairy hand lowers from the back of his tattooed neck. As he walks away, he doesn’t notice the sparks and the little puff of smoke that emanate from the mosquito on the ground. He’s busy; he has four hostages inside a building and is threatening to kill them all. Armed with a rifle, he is irrational and makes no demands.
