John

At the end of his walk to work one morning, John was run over by a tractor-trailer making a delivery to his place of employment. He was hit with enough force to fracture his skull and cause bleeding on his brain. The collision was so violent that it ripped the quarter panel on the truck’s driver side completely off.

John was hospitalized for a month. While he had recovered enough to be released, he had not healed enough to return to the streets.
