Lt. Otto Lindstrom is seriously injured when he goes to meet his snitch. There is a shootout and Lindstrom is hit by a bullet.
He is rushed to hospital but he saw the men who confronted him.
While the rest of police colleagues are concerned. The situation becomes critical. Dr Bruce is a skilled surgeon who plans to operate on Lindstrom.
Only somehow the hoodlums have managed to get his wife and holding her hostage. Dr Bruce must not operate on Lindstrom.
Captain Matt Holbrook goes all out to find these two men, he knows one of them is injured. Lindstrom managed to shoot him, so they will bound to go to a doctor in the underworld.
It is a ludicrous premise, that the baddies managed to find out just who the surgeon and his wife is and get to her. It also ignores that some other doctor could had operated in.
Despite the flaky logic, it was entertaining enough.
