The guy surrenders to Niko and is hoping for a break, so his life is in your hands. Remember that if he escapes, this will all play out differently, because you'll have to chase him and kill him. When you reach the roof, you're near the thug's location, and when you climb stairs from the roof to an even higher portion of the roof, you're right on top of him. Or is it? Keep an eye on your health and take it slowly (but not too slowly) to be sure that none of these enemies sneak up on you or flank you. Track the red dot on the HUD and follow in pursuit. Ultimately, you'll want to work your way up to the roof of the building via several staircases that you will find. They're carrying a mixture of semiautomatic weapons and pistols (be sure to grab both types of weapons as you down foes). Unfortunately, the entire population of the project seems to be strapped and ready to defend their friend, so as soon as you draw a weapon, you're in for a fight. And, of course, the red dot on the HUD will allow you to keep an eye on him, as well. Be especially mindful of any on-screen prompts that appear, which will alert you as to your subject's status.

However, if you take too long in getting to where you need to go, your subject will attempt to escape. If you're quick enough in getting to the roof, you can capture your subject on the roof.

This mission can play out in two different ways. Take Francis's advice, though, and holster your weapon until you reach the second floor. The idea here is to infiltrate the apartment building to find your target, who is represented by a red dot on the HUD. Then, get out of the car and head into the arrow waiting alongside the street to begin your mission. Drive there from the police station, following the GPS on your HUD northward to your location. Francis told you to head up to Vauxite Street, which is confusing considering the location on your HUD once you leave the police station is actually on Uranium Street, just north of Middle Park.
