He did not smell of alcohol, so I suspected it was some other substance.
He did have a small head unjury, but not sufficient to cause that sort of
behaviour. The time period for adrenaline and shock was well over.
I cannot follow up on the accident as the city's list server is completely
down. Must be a government project. :{b
