'''NMPD Headquarters''' was the command-and-control center for the [[New Mombasa Police Department]], located in the [[Tanaga]] district of [[New Mombasa]], [[Kenya]] | [[File:95414610-Full.jpg|thumb|300px|The NMPD HQ]] | ||
'''NMPD Headquarters''' was the command-and-control center for the [[New Mombasa Police Department]], located in the [[Tanaga]] district of [[New Mombasa]], [[Kenya]].<ref>'''[[Halo 3: ODST]]'''</ref> The building's top floors had several air pads for [[D77C-NMPD Pelican|NMPD's Pelican dropships]]. The 14th floor of the building housed an emergency communications and a propaganda broadcasting station.<ref name="sadie">'''Halo 3: ODST''', ''[[Sadie's Story]]''</ref> | |||
== | == History == | ||
During the [[Battle of Mombasa]], an angered, corrupt ex-cop, [[Marshall Glick]], took control of the lobby with an Assault Rifle and killed several cops. He then took two people, [[Sadie Endesha]] and [[Mike Branley]], hostage for a while before a [[Special Weapons And Tactics|SWAT team]] arrived and killed him.<ref name="sadie"/> | |||
Later in the battle, [[Orbital Drop Shock Trooper|ODSTs]] [[Kojo Agu]] and [[Edward Buck]] made their way to the top of the building, avoiding [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] troops on their way up. After a Pelican carrying their squad mates was shot down, they fought their way through the upper floors to another rooftop to rescue them. | |||
The upper floors of the building were still under construction by the time [[Covenant Empire|Covenant]] [[Covenant Army|troops]] arrived, and the floors were left completely abandoned when UNSC reinforcements arrived, and the area around the NMPD Pelican crash site was used as a defensive position by the ODST's using [[AIE-486H Heavy Machine Gun|HMGs]] and [[LAU-65D/SGM-151|Missile Pods]], successfully repelling a Covenant attack on the rooftops by Covenant [[Type-52 Troop Carrier|Phantoms]] and [[Type-26 Ground Support Aircraft|Banshees]]. | |||
The building, with the rest of New Mombasa, was destroyed when [[Truth's fleet]] [[Glassing|glassed]] Mombasa to excavate the [[Forerunner]] [[The Portal|Portal]]. | |||
