"Help ! Help ! It's a gang fight !"

Shoppers at Marina Centre in Singapore heard cries coming from the field nearby. A girl screamed, loudly and very shrilly. The fright in her voice/scream turned Daryl's blood cold. For a split second, time seemed to be frozen as the horror of the situation penetrated every shopper's brain. Then, all of a sudden, everybody started running towards the field. It seemed as if everyone had gone mad! Daryl ran along with them, eager to see part of the action.

When he reached the field, the fight was over. All he could see was a huge crowd huddled in the middle of the field. Daryl pushed his way through the crowd and stared. Lying on the ground was a teenager. His face was very pale and he was covered with blood. The handle of a switch blade could be seen sticking out of his stomach. Daryl began to feel very sick.

Suddenly, a man pushed his way through the crowd and called for a little space. Obediently, the people moved back. Daryl was very relieved. He thought that the ambulance had arrived. However, the man whipped out a camera and started taking photographs of the boy, not bothered that the teenager was injured. He even tried to interview the boy. Finally, help came, but it was too late. The paramedics fought to save the injured teenager, but failed. Daryl looked on as the corpse was loaded into the ambulance.
