Sergeant Taggart : Why didn't you identify yourself as a police officer when you were arrested?
Axel Foley : 'Cause I was mindin' my own business. Hey, where the fuck do you guys get off on arresting somebody for getting thrown out of a window?
Sergeant Taggart : We have six witnesses that say you broke in and started tearing up the place, then jumped out the window!
