When a good cop gets blown away in a drive-by shooting the police department writes it off as a random act of violence. Big mistake. That young cop has a father who happens to be a special forces-trained street fighting nerves-of-steel avenger bent on one thing: justice. To find his son`s killer Simon Ballister moves into the worst part of town where his welcome wagon turns out to be two gang members whom he sends home bleeding. Ballister isn`t easily deterred and he`ll stop at nothing to find his son`s killer. But these gangs have more men more firepower more police protection and the fearless and dangerous recklessness of youth - all of which Ballister plans to use against them.
