He had been in this similar place numerous times before, but for a different reason. Tonight, he was standing on the other side of the law. He was here to see a friend who had committed a crime.
He could see several police officers in uniforms and some in detective clothes with badges hanging on their belts. Some officers were busy interviewing civilians while others sat at their tables, working on their cases.
"What is he being charged with?" Alex asked as soon as he stepped into the police station after midnight, facing the man who called him.
He was surprised to get a call from a detective about the incident. But as the immediate contact person, they had to call him. His friend sat behind bars, charged with assault and destruction of property, while his wife sat in the waiting area, visibly still slightly intoxicated but crying.
