The guerrilla was patrolling the jungle camp when Dutch and his team begun their assault. When Dutch sent a driverless pickup careering into the camp, the guerrilla jumped aboard, attempting to stop it before it ploughed into the main palapa, not knowing there was a satchel charge in the back of the truck.
