ANGEL DUST SHOT AND KILLED WHILE ON US HIGHWAY

*Based on this true story.*

**It is noon time in Bel Air, Maryland. Officer Carlos Desantio is on patrol when he gets a call from dispatch.**

Dispatch: Two unknown passengers are slumped down, passed out on Surry Street. Callers are unsure if they are dead.

Carlos. I’m nearby. I’m on my way to the area.

**Carlos drives to Surry Street to find a beige 1997 Toyota Corolla.**

Carlos: That must be them.

**Carlos gets out of the patrol vehicle and walks to the driver’s side. He sees Angel Dust, a spider-like demon from Hazbin Hotel, passed out. On the passenger side is Hibari-Kun, a tansgender from who was later found to be an illegal immigrant from Japan, also passed out. The window is rolled open. Carlos pats Angel Dust’s back, and he awakes.**

Angel Dust: What the... who are you?

Carlos: I’m Officer Desantio from the Bel Air Police Department. Are you okay?

Angel Dust: Ummmmmm....... I’m goooodd.....

Carlos: Okay. Can you put the car in park for me?

Angel Dust: Pa....... rk?

Carlos: Sir? Are yo-

**Out of nowhere, Angel Dust speeds off.**

Carlos: The suspect just fleed. I’m going on pursuit!

**Carlos gets on his patrol vehicle and speeds.**

Carlos: I think they were on some sort of drug... His slurred speech indicates that he’s on alcohol.

**Carlos and other officers reach a grassy area where people are pointing at a direction.**

Witness: They drove off, crashed in a fence, and we saw one fled off.

Carlos: Thanks!

**They dash into the direction of U.S. Highway 1. They see Angel Dust running.**

Carlos: Stop!

**Angel Dust then pulls out a Beretta Cx4 Storm Tactical Carbine. The officers immediately pull out their guns.**

Officer: DROP THE GUN!!!

Angel Dust: KILL ME!!! KILL ME!!!

Carlos: We don’t want to kill you!

Angel Dust: KILL ME NOW!!! I DON’T WANT TO LIVE ANYMORE!!!

**Angel Dust then pulls out a knife and begins to cut his wrist.**

Officer: STOP CUTTING YOURSELF!!! ARE YOU FUCKING INSANE?!?!

**At this point, a taser is imployed, but to no effect.**

Angel Dust: NO!!! KILL ME!!! KILL ME RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!

Carlos: We don’t want to do this! Please!

**Angel Dust throws the knife at some bushes. By this point, he has major cuts on his chest, wrists, and neck.**

Officer: Close off the highway now! We have a policide attempt going on!

Carlos: DON’T COME ANY CLOSER!!!

Angel Dust: DO IT!!!

**Angel Dust is shot 8 times. He falls down, but quickly gets up.**

Carlos: GET ON THE GROUND!!!

Angel Dust: SHOOT ME AGAIN!!! DO IT!!!

**Angel Dust points a gun at Carlos, and he and the rest of the officers shoot him 20 more times before he falls again. However, he never gets up again.**

Carlos: SIR!!! ROLL ON YOUR STOMACH!!!

Officer: Carlos, I think he’s down...

**They come closer. Carlos takes the gun and disarms it, while other officers cuff Angel Dust.**

Carlos: We need paramedics immediately. One has been shot at least 20 times. Another has apparently crashed.

**Paramedics arrive. Angel Dust is pronounced dead on arrival, while Hibari-Kun is located.**

Carlos: Passenger! Show us your hands!

**Hibari-Kun does not come out.**

Hibari-Kun: I... h-hurt... c-c-can’t move...

Carlos: We’re gonna get you out!

**Carlos drags Hibari-Kun out of the car and into a stretcher.**

Hibari-Kun: Where i-is Angel D-d-dust...

Officer: I’m sorry... but he was shot to death after he refused to comply...

Hibari-Kun: why... WHY?!?!?!

**Hibari-Kun cries hysterically while being placed in the ambulance.**

### AFTERMATH

**The court found the officers shootout justified, and were not charged. Hibari-Kun, meanwhile, was sent back to Japan.**
