Last Saturday, I went to a coffee shop to meet a friend of mine. I got there ten minutes earlier.

I ordered a cup of coffee and sat by the window, watching people. There were some boys playing football on the street and a small boy was running after the ball as it rolled across the road. Suddenly, there came a car. It was going very fast. When the driver saw the boy in his way, he braked hard. But it was too late. The small boy was lying on the street without moving. To everyone’s surprise, the car didn’t stop. It drove away quickly.

People ran to the boy. There was a cut on the boy’s head and he lost a lot of blood. The coffee shop owner telephoned the police. Soon an ambulance (救护车) arrived and took the boy to the hospital. At 6:30 p.m. , the police arrived and started questioning people. About half an hour later, they asked me to go to the police station because I saw everything. I gave them all the information I had known because I really wanted them to catch the driver. I didn’t leave the police station until 8:00 p.m. After that I went home because I didn’t want to talk to anyone.

The next day, the boy’s parents called me to say thanks. They also told me their son was fine and that the driver was at the police station
