THE ADVENTURES OF OFFICER BOB
Wanted Warren walked up to Officer Bob as he was showing off his police car computer to kids in the neighborhood. When Wanted Warren asked how the system works, Officer Bob asked him for his license. Officer Bob then ran the information into the computer, and moments later he arrested Wanted Warren because information on the screen showed that Wanted Warren was wanted for two old armed robberies.
