By the time the police officer arrived at the hospital Marty was already sent to an examination room. Entering the reception area he made a beeline to the front desk to find his room.


'Was there a young boy eleven years old admitted with in the past hour.'

'Patient confidentiality, I cant tell you' the police officer reached into his pocket and pulled out a wallet like object and opened it to reveal a LAPD badge.

'LAPD Detective Roy Jones that boy is in protective custody as he was involved in a shooting earlier today' The woman was quick to find the paper that held the boys record.

'Martin Brandel eleven years old blond hair?' asked the receptionist.

'yes"

'Room 413 take, care of him i do not want to see him in my paediatric ward because of his worthless father again.'


Caught off guard by the new information Roy mad his way to Marty's room when he was approached by a nurse. 'We've got some bruising around the ribs which are cracked and a hairline arm fracture.' She explained with a slight shudder in her voice. Stunned by the new information about this young boy whom he now knew as Martin Brandel he decided he had to do something.
