‘O-K John I’ll just put him on. Joe took the phone from Jane. ‘Hello John what can I do for.’
‘You won't believe it Joe but we have another one already and according to the constable on site he says it’s just like the one this morning, can you come down now Joe or are you too busy ‘No John I’ll get to you soon, where are you.’ It’s just at the bottom of Bell Street.’ ‘O-k then Boss I’ll see you there.’
Joe put on his shoes then his coat and told Jane not to wait up for him.
When he got to Bell Street he could see a crowd of people standing at the bottom of the street. When he got to where the crowd was he had to push his way through and when he got through he could see John standing talking to a constable.
‘Hello Joe good of you to come at short notice, but I could not face all this site work on my own, it would be very early morning before I could get home, as it is, it might still be the middle of the night, it looks like another young lad, it’s just like this morning he is cut up pretty bad to I-D him will be a nightmare, ‘Joe I am starting to think the Doctor may be right, right Joe take out your little black book and take a walk around that lot to see if anybody has seen anything.’ He pointed to the crowd of onlookers. ‘O-k Boss I’m onto it now, but I don’t think we will get anyone who saw anything.’
Joe walked towards the crowd of people.
John went back to where the body was lying. A police Pathologist was on his knees by the body.
‘Hell Dick.’ ‘Hello John.’ ‘Well Dick what can you tell me.’ ‘Not much yet but I would say he died about one hour ago, and well you can see what he died of, he is cut to ribbons it has got to be a mad man or woman, I mean the poor kid has no face left to look at.’ ‘Yes Dick we have a mad killer on our hands, can you let me have your full autopsy report as soon as you can.’ ‘O-k John I’ll get the body sent to the lab right away, then I will make the post-mortem and I’ll get the report to you as soon as it’s done, I think it will be about twelve
O-clock, but it looks like it’s identical as the one this morning.’ ‘O-k Dick do what you do best.’
John turned back to look for Joe. He spotted him talking to a man with a dog. And Joe was writing something down in his notepad.
John waited until Joe was finished then approached him.
‘Well John that gent I was talking to, said he was out walking his dog along the bottom bit of bell street, when a big man dressed all in black came running past him, he said the man was not a jogger because of the way he was running he was running in a big hurry he did not see the face of the runner because he had a mask over his face, I have asked the man to come into the station in the morning to make a full statement, I mean do you remember what the Doctor said, he said James Dunbar was a very big man, I took down the man’s address.’ ‘Right Joe there is not much more we can do here tonight so off you go or I’ll be getting hung off your Jane, so good night and thanks for coming and I’ll see you in the morning.’
James Dunbar stood watching the young policeman writing something down. He
