Casualty ‘A’
You are returning home after a day trip and arrive at the Seaport station late in the evening to catch a train home. As you approach the escalator a youth rushes up behind you and tries to snatch your handbag. You struggle to hang on to the bag but he lunges at you with a knife. As you put up your right arm to protect yourself you suffer an incised wound to the inner arm before being stabbed in the chest. Use your own name and address and dress appropriately for the occasion.
Casualty ‘B’
You work in one of the cafes on Seaport station and as you start to leave the station at the end of your shift you see a youth attempt to snatch a woman’s handbag. You go to her assistance but he pushes past you knocking you over. You suffer a closed fracture to the pelvis as you hit the ground. You are concerned that you cannot stand up but are also worried about the other casualty who appears to be badly injured. Use your own name and address and dress appropriately for the occasion.
