When you get close to the sheriff's office, it'll turn out to be an ambush. Sean will be shot by a sniper and a regular shooting will begin.

Note: Having Sawed-Off Shotgun as the first side weapon can prevent (or at least make it very difficult) to earn the gold medal in this mission, becouse this weapon can only fire two shots without reloading and one of the requirements to earn the gold medal requires to fire three shots (Arthur will automatically use the first weapon). So it is best to change it before the mission starts to some revolver.

Objectives of A Short Walk in a Pretty Town

1. Fend off the ambushers

Remember that one of the requirements for a gold medal is that you only use a side arms. Aim for the heads of your opponents, because for the next requirement you need to get 20 headshots. Grays will attack you from all sides. Use covers to minimize the amount of damage, as you cannot use items that restore health. If you want to get enough headshots you need to be fast and kill your opponents before your friends do.
