Claude, now in police custody, is intended to transfer from police headquarters in [[Staunton Island|Staunton]] to Liberty Penitentiary to serve out his 10-year jail sentence. Claude is to be taken there via a police convoy that is also transporting two other inmates: [[8-Ball]], following [[Another Punch in the Gut for Organized Crime|an arrest which left both his hands fully bandaged]], and [[Oriental Gentleman|an oriental man of unknown origin]], [[Elderly Asian Man Held After Failing to Satisfy Immigration|arrested for possessing no legal documents]]. While crossing the [[Callahan Bridge]] from Staunton to [[Portland]], the convoy is ambushed by a well coordinated Colombian Cartel team, whose intention is to capture the oriental prisoner [[Liberator|as ransom]], seemingly caring little of the fate of the other prisoners. To ensure their escape, the team left a powerful bomb on the bridge, resulting in an explosion that damages the bridge and cuts Portland off from the rest of Liberty City. | Claude, now in police custody, is intended to transfer from police headquarters in [[Staunton Island|Staunton]] to Liberty Penitentiary to serve out his 10-year jail sentence.

During the ambush and explosion, Claude and 8-Ball manage to break free, but find they have nowhere else to go but Portland, leading up to the first mission of the game, "[[Give Me Liberty]]". | During the ambush and explosion, Claude and 8-Ball manage to break free, but find they have nowhere else to go but Portland, leading up to the first mission of the game, "[[Give Me Liberty]]". |
