"Hey there, little guy!"
Guy, thinking he had heard his name, turned and almost smacked into a big, bulky cop.
He stared about chest level with the huge cop, who was dressed in his blue uniform.
The cop, who stood 6'4" and weighed about 220 pounds, put one of his big hands on Guy's shoulder.
"Sorry, but not kids allowed," the cop informed Guy in a patronizing tone. "It's a dangerous place."
Looking down at Guy's small bare feet, the cop added, "Which it looks like you've already learned the hard way."
Guy, still stunned by the immense size of the cop, had almost forgotten the throbbing cut on his foot.
"Wh...what happened here?" Guy managed to stammer.
"That's what we are here to find out," the cop said, not unfriendly, but definitely short of patience for a kid's curiosity. "Now, you run on home, little guy."
Guy contemplated spilling everything to the cop, but hesitated. Would anyone believe such an outlandish story?
