Bonjour
Je bute sur le passage suivant dont voici le contexte : une équipe de police est à la poursuite d'un homme, soupçonné d'être un meurtrier, qui vient d'enlever une femme. Ils viennent de retrouver sa voiture (en feu) mais aucune trace du suspect ni de sa victime nulle part. Un des membres de l'équipe en conclut qu'une autre voiture devait l'attendre et qu'il s'est enfui avec. Et le chef de groupe d'enchaïner en disant :"Our guy is on the move. We're following-up but we need another angle". Je ne comprends pas le sens de ce "we're following up but we need another angle". D'avance merci de m'éclairer
