Didn'T See It Coming, Part V

...But as he tried to do all this, to offer this victim his thanks, he felt a sharp and sudden blow, then instantly his world went blank… The father’s heel struck on his spine, just where it meets up with the brain, the blow so hard it severed it, Carson would never breath again. His wife just hugged her crying kids, the father looked on, in a haze, “There’s crazies everywhere you look, you just can’t escape them these days…” His own nerves felt frazzled and worn, and worry in his stomach lurched, but cops would call it self-defense, there were cameras there on the church.
