Brian Taylor a Mike Zavala tvoria nerozlučnú policajnú dvojicu. Robia všetko pre to, aby sa po skončení hliadky vrátili domov živí a zdraví. Majú len jednu jedinú istotu - v uliciach South Central v južnej časti Los Angeles, kde vládnu brutálne gangy a drogové kartely, si nemôžu byť istí absolútne ničím! V spleti modrých svetiel, húkajúcich sirén a adrenalínových situácií sledujeme spontánne a často humorné chvíle služby dvoch kolegov, ktorí väčšinu času trávia v policajnom aute a čakajú na ďalší prípad. Vytvorí sa medzi nimi puto, vďaka ktorému v nebezpečných situáciách pracujú ako tím. Vedia, že kedykoľvek môže nastať situácia, v ktorej budú musieť nasadiť vlastný život. Keď pri rutinnej dopravnej kontrole zabavia mladí policajti niekoľko zbraní a špinavé peniaze, netušia, že patrili známemu drogovému gangu, ktorý ich za to už odsúdil na smrť.
