You are fighting a Sketchy dealer.
This guy's got shifty written all over him, from his darting eyes to his rapidly twisting hands, all the way down to his continually shifting feet. You approach him and say that if he hands over the rest of his drugs and goes home you'll let him go, because you're really only after violent criminals. But apparently he's more attached to the money than he is to his health, because he decides to fight instead of leave. You wonder if the drugs made him dumb, or if he was that way to begin with.
