Arthur Gates

Arthur was an officer of the Raccoon City Police Department.

Background
During the Raccoon City Destruction Incident of 1998, Arthur assisted deputy chief Raymond Douglas in the evacuation process, which included alerting survivors near J's Bar. Notifying civilians of a nearby retrieval point where fellow officers would escort them to safety, a group of survivors making their way outside of J's Bar through the rooftop were enticed. Arthur calls out to citizens from a checkpoint outside of Jack's Bar. He asks them to assemble in the area in order for the Raccoon City Police Department to ensure their safety.

By the time they reached the street, however, the Zombies had breached the police blockade and attacked fleeing survivors, killing Arthur in the process.
