Cops

by Jubjub

"When I arrived there was a clear appearance of a struggle: Two midgets, who claimed to be hobbits, and several sets of foot prints that must have been a third party. When questioned on how the one hobbit, "Frodo", had sustained a injury to his left hand, he responded nonsensically. The other hobbit, "Sam", mentioned that the fight was over a ring and a the third missing person had bit Frodo's finger off and fell into the chasm. A little further questioning of the uninjured hobbit cleared things up a bit: with the mention of the local alternatives bar The Prancing Pony, a suggestion of several nights sleeping together on some sort of a hike, and an apparent dislike between Sam and the missing individual Smeagol, the events preceding the injury and possible homicide seemed along the lines of a lovers quarrel.
I proceeded to pepper spray Sam after he attempted to prevent me from searching Frodo. With some persuasion with my night stick, I managed to subdue the rowdy man. I discovered weapons on both, and decided that is was best that they be locked up untill the whole mess was sorted out. I searched for the other man, who must have fallen down the cliff into the volcano, but found nothing, nor any sign of a ring. I guess rings do have special powers over the hearts of men, especially when it's between lovers--- even short ones."

"It's tough seeing things like that, but it's all just a part of the job. I just hope that those two learned a lesson. It's too bad, because I know I'll see them back out on the streets , probably in the prostitution racket or on a Domestic call."
