The school was thrown into chaos, everyone's mind stuck on the death that had just happened. A witness — a student — was quickly interviewed.
Media swarmed around the school like hungry vultures, shoving microphones into the poor boy's face.
"We heard you were there when the bloody accident took place. Can you tell us what happened?" The lead reporter demanded, voice sharp and impatient.
The boy didn't answer. He just stood there trembling, shaking so hard it looked like he might collapse any second.
A nearby police officer, noticing the reporters' persistence, lost his temper. He shoved the crowd back violently.
"You irresponsible fools! Can't you see he's traumatized? Give the kid a break!" the officer barked, glaring at the reporters like they were trash. Then, he gently took the student by the arm and led him into the police van.
