Bus Stop

This morning at the bus stop on the side of E.A. Marcoux sheet metal, five people were waiting. When bus 54 arrived, one woman was left behind. She was sitting on the curb in front of the vacant store front. She was wearing a brown knit cap. I was 50 yards away standing, watching with my dog, Romeo. Moments later I heard sirens and a red ambulance and red fire truck stopped at the bus stop. The EMT's jumped out and placed the woman on a stretcher and carried her into the back of the ambulance, and drove off.
