DAGENHAM RIPPER

I wandered past the Foggy park, I could feel the coldness on my skin, I could hear my heart get faster as it tried to pump blood round my body to try and make me warmer, There was no-one else around, apart from some stray cats and foxes. Then suddenly from nowhere I heard a massive scream, it echoed around the park getting louder and louder, I was scared at this point trying not to slow down and look, I held my head up and started running home, knowing that I wasn’t that far, I could see a branch up ahead on the ground and told myself don’t trip over that, even though moments before I had thought about avoiding it, I kept running and for some reason my brain wouldn’t communicate with my leg and I just stumbled as I tripped over the branch.

I lifted myself up, I was in pain couldn’t tell if I had broken anything just wanted to get home, I limped off down the road I knew I wasn’t getting home any time quick when suddenly from nowhere a human like figure appeared in the distance, I thought to myself where did they come from there was no one else around as I kept limping I could tell that the figure was getting closer and closer to me, by this time I couldn’t do anything I was in a subway, I could hear the cars rushing down the A13. I thought to myself if I scream no one will hear me, but then it was too late the figure was so close that I could feel the breathe blowing onto my frozen face, they said ‘Your next,’ and then they left.

I carried on limping, eventually getting home and now scared I didn’t know what to do I poured myself a cup of tea and crawled into bed took me a good few hours to fall asleep because of all the adrenaline pumping around my body, I knew I had to get some sleep I had an interview in t...

... middle of paper ...

...ve that the body was dragged here.

I was in shock this was one of my first jobs and I didn’t know what I had to do, The scenes of crimes officers just told me to sit in the back of the van, whilst I was there I rung the commanding officer and asked what I should do, on the phone he said “he would come down and see what is going on, and to make sure I was okay”, All I had to do now is wait for him to come down and then I could find out what I was going to do, I waited about five minutes, and the commanding officer arrive, he came straight over and spoke to me told me “ go back to the station, it is your first day and so far you have done an amazing job, go back and write up the paperwork “ after he said that two police officers came over and told me they are going to take me back to the station, so I could get cleaned up and write my report.
