He hid in the bushes as the lights approached. Swearing profusely under his breath as his heart pounded against his rib cage.

Thorns scratched his face as he pushed himself deeper into the shadows.

The lights became brighter as they closed in on his location, he murmurs a quick prayer as they pass him.

Relief and confusion overwhelm him as he steps out of the bush covered in thorns and leaves.

“It was just an ambulance.” He sighed with relief.

As he bends down to catch his breath he feels the thump of a hand land on his shoulder. He turns his head to see the unamused face of a police officer standing before him.
