Guard (Ted Lutz) is the main antagonist of Subway Surfers. In the beginning of every game, he and his dog will look for trespassers around the subway.

Whenever he catches a character spraying graffiti on one of the trains (vandalizing), he will chase them down the tracks until that character hits an obstacle.

If the character has only bumped once into an obstacle, the inspector will appear on the screen, gaining on them and will yell "Halt!"; if the character crashes into an obstacle or bumps twice into an obstacle or when he is present in the screen, they will be caught by the inspector, ending their run unless the player uses a continue.
