Edit
Cavanaugh was with Martin Riggs, Roger Murtaugh and the other detectives assigned on the krugerrand case by Captain Ed Murphy. He watches Riggs break free out of the straitjacket and places his bet money on the table.
The next day at the police station after Murtaugh was tied up in his house, Cavanaugh and the others are told to cover each other's backs to prevent further harm.
Cavanaugh then arrives at Arjen Rudd's house and along with detectives Collins, Esteban, and Wyler, surround one group of henchmen while Riggs and Murtaugh identify the suspects. Unfortunately nothing can be done to apprehend them due to diplomatic immunity and they are forced to let them go.
At a poker game being at Cavanaugh's house, Cavanaugh went to his stereo to turn up the music, which instead triggered an explosion caused by Pieter Vorstedt. Cavanaugh was among six people killed in his home, the others being Jerry Collins, Moss, Freisen, and two other detectives.
