Chapter 8 - Paramedics Rush Through The Front Door For Sarah
Moments later, the urgent sound of boots stomping up the porch steps signaled the arrival of the county paramedics.
Two medical technicians rushed through the open front door carrying a heavy trauma kit and a folding stretcher.
“Clear the way, please! Where is the patient?” the lead paramedic asked urgently, kneeling beside Sarah on the hardwood.
“Right here. She fell down the entire flight of wooden stairs and is complaining of severe abdominal pain,” Lucas explained quickly.
“Okay, Sarah, I’m paramedic Davis. I need you to stay completely still while we check your vitals,” the technician said gently.
Sarah bit her lip to hold back another wave of tears as they carefully secured a neck brace and pulse monitor.
Across the room, Officer Miller clicked the steel handcuffs tightly around Chad’s wrists and shoved him against the wall.
“You’re going downtown for domestic assault, forgery, and grand larceny,” Officer Miller announced in a flat, bored tone.
Chad glared daggers at Lucas and Sarah as he was forcefully escorted out of the suburban house toward the cruiser.
