On or around the 18th of January 2022, Police Detectives with the Gang and Narcotics Division had credible information following a surveillance operation that two members of the criminal organization known as 'Underground' were armed with heavy weaponry and body armor as a result of a case breakthrough.
The people inclined of being in possession of heavy weaponry following the operation were Melody Valentine (ex. Melody Rogers), a leading figure in the criminal organization (Underground), alongside Amber Wellington, a suspected member of the criminal organization known as 'Salvation'. Upon arriving at the Del Perro Pier, the two aforementioned members were located and approached with heavy weaponry, as they were found to be armed in kind. A group of people was present, including an unknown individual - later identified as Chad Rapkov.
