During an undercover drug buy Mitch was working that Trey botched by calling in for backup and drawing media atten …tion, Mitch's partner is shot with a very exotic 12-gauge automatic weapon; Mitch then shoots the video camera out of the hands of a reporter filming the action when the cameraman refused to shut it down.
