Mistakes
- When Jon and Ponch find the crossbow arrow, Ponch says "We got the address on that pickup. Let's have another go at those guys." The poachers were driving a sedan at the beginning, not a pickup.
- When Jon and Ponch pull up at the crash caused by the ladies with the dog, the interior shot shows a blue Ford semi cab directly behind them, but there are no trucks in any of the wide shots and no vehicles behind them.
