Laura Burke I lived in Costa Rico for a couple years and when I come back to the US I was short on cash and needed money. To make some quick money I decided to pick up a couple of jobs as a bounty hunter. One of the bail jumpers for assault on his wife had a bounty of $5000.00. When I found out he was in South Florida I jumped at the chance to collect. I found him at his favorite bar. He stood six foot five and weight approximately 225. Now I'm five foot two and weighed about one hundred and three pounds. I had the make and color plus his tag number of the car he drove. I went inside the bar and told the bar tender I had just hit a silver car in the parking lot and I need to see the owner. He knew exactly whose car it was and he called him over. I explained to him I hit his car and he needed to come out to the parking lot and take a look. As soon as we reached the outside, I stepped behind him and pulled my 38 colt out and placed it at the base of his head and told him to get down flat on the ground. Now a crowd started to form and someone called the police for me. I sat on his back with my gun still in position. I took my handcuffs and tried to handcuff him but my handcuffs wouldn't reach from one arm to the other for he was to muscular. The police arrived and I should them my papers and off to jail he went and I received the stamp I had brought him in and collected the $5000.00. Now this could have gone either way and yes I could use this in a plot for a book.
I hope you enjoyed my answer.

For all persons wanting to write I think it is the best way to express yourself. Never give up and forget about the editing until you have the chapter complete and don't delete a lot! Just fix it. For the first time usually is good just needs to be cleaned up. Never give up!
