Horrendous

It was a strange afternoon. The grey billowing clouds had cast a gloomy hue upon the urban landscape of faceless concrete structures and in the midst of the heavy, relentless sheets of falling rain, I saw a white police sub-compact and an ambulance outside. I was informed that a man, while running in the pouring rain, had hit his head against a section of a 20-foot container, opening a bloody gash.
