A Consequence of Killer-Litter

             

 

Jason, Samy and Michael were standing below their apartment block talking when out of the blue, bottle was thrown from above and landed on Michael’s head. The glass shattered and Michael was knocked unconscious. Jason was startled at this but he immediately knelt down beside Michael to see the injury. There was a deep gash on Michael’s head and blood was streaming out of it. Samy had instinctively looked up and he saw a lady duck away from a window on the fourth floor. While Jason, who knew first aid, attended to the unconscious Michael, Samy ran towards the public telephone and called an ambulance.

The ambulance arrived in a few moments and carried Michael into the ambulance. Jason had used his tee-shirt to tie around Michael’s head to stop the bleeding. The medics did not remove the blood-soaked tee-shirt saying that he needed to be brought to the hospital as soon as possible because Michael had lost a lot of blood. The police arrived just as the ambulance was moving off. Samy told the policeman what he saw and together with the police, the two friends made their way to the fourth floor.

The woman whom Samy had seen confessed to throwing the bottle. She said that she was sorry that she had caused the tragedy. The police brought her to the police station. The two friends were also asked to drop by later as they wanted statements from them as well.

Later in the day, Jayson and Samy visited Michael at the hospital. The doctors had cleaned and stitched his wound. Michael’s head was bandaged so they were not able to see the stitches. The doctors had said that the danger was over and that he would be well again soon. Jason and Samy related to him how the culprit had already been arrested by the police.
