Smoke filled his lungs as he got out of his car for the second time today, having bought another two packs of cigarettes from down the road before playing 20 questions with the store clerk, he had made his way over to the house where the attack had taken place, watching as people milled around, watching as the police moved around, before he managed to catch the attention of the officer he needed.
"Brians!"
He subtely slipped the officer a 100 dollar bill before the man continued talking, it was amazing how a piece of paper made someone want to talk so badly.
"Its pretty bad in there Alastair, blood, guts, you name it, I'm getting guys to shovel it, not only that but the kid wasnt out of his teens, that isnt a life."
Intruiged by the swarms of people running around them, Alastair leaned close to officer Tim Brians.
"How did he die Timmy?"
The officer coughed into his jacket to prevent anyone from seeing the copies of the file that he had made.
"Everythings in their Alastair, just one question how was your trip to the swamps?"
"Don't bleedin start."
