Frank Burst was an agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation who headed a task force to apprehend Robert Patrick Modell. In 1994, Burst and his agents tracked Modell to a supermarket in Loudoun County, Virginia, and arrested him in the store, the result of an extensive investigation into a series of apparently self-inflicted deaths. Burst rode shotgun in the car of a county sheriff's deputy when the deputy, under Modell's influence, drove his car in front of a moving semi-truck. Burst was injured in the incident and Modell escaped. Agent Frank Burst was played by Vic Polizos.
