Breaking out of the 5th Crime Scene
With the lead pipe in your inventory, head past Miller and go to the end of the hall. Before heading to the door at the end of the hall you can click on the hole in the right wall to get a quick comment from Victoria. Then you want to head to the door at the end of the hall.
Before you can use the Lead Pipe on the door you'll need to activate the door by clicking on it. This will give you a quick comment from Victoria, after which you will be able to continue. Once you have the door open, head on through.
Once you are on the fire escape you'll want to activate the ladder. As soon as you do, the ladder will fall through to the ground below. While this may seem like a road block, it actually opened the road. Just move your mouse over the garbage bin on the ground to the left of the fire escape. It will give you a wrench icon. Simply click and Victoria will jump on down.
5th Crime Scene Wrap-Up
As you jump down from the fire escape a short cutscene will play. You should talk to Officer Tate one last time on your way by. He doesn't have much to say, but talking to characters the next time you encounter them after story progression is a good idea. Now all that's left is to go back to your truck and use the GPS to return to the office.
