Axel Foley è un giovane agente della polizia di Detroit, fin troppo esuberante ed insofferente alle regole. Il suo più caro amico è Michael Tandino, un piccolo ladruncolo con alcuni problemi con la giustizia ma a cui Axel è molto affezionato, dato che si conoscono fin da quando erano ragazzi. La sera stessa in cui Michael incontra Axel, a casa di quest'ultimo, i due vengono aggrediti da dei misteriosi killer, che stordiscono Axel ed uccidono Michael a sangue freddo. Indagando, Axel scopre che l'ultimo posto che Michael aveva frequentato era un galleria d'arte a Beverly Hills, dove aveva trovato lavoro grazie a Jenny, una loro amica di vecchia data. Arrivato a Beverly Hills, va a trovare Jenny, la quale lo indirizza al suo superiore, Victor Maitland, il proprietario della galleria d'arte. Maitland sembra non gradire le domande di Foley, e lo fa cacciare in malo modo dai suoi uomini. Per giunta, Axel viene anche arrestato dalla polizia con l'accusa di aggressione.
