The police were called to the scene of a murder in an alley near Broadway Street. Detective Danny Clover was assigned to the case. Detective Muggerman was already at the scene. When Danny arrives, he finds a dust heavy trail of blood leading to a dead man. He with a look of anguish on his face, sitting against a faded brick wall. The man's hand was still clutching to the entrance of the bullet wound. Muggerman was gently leaning over him, searching through the dead man's pockets. He suddenly finds something, then reads it. Danny asks "What did you find, Muggerman? He says "I found him like that. All broken up about the bullet in his chest. He tried to tell me why it was there, but he never got the words out. It was phoned in from the back room of a bar down the alley. A friendly chap wandered out for a breath of fresh air. He saw this, then ran back inside to make his call to the police. Then, he bought drinks for the house. He's still celebrating if you want to talk to him". Danny asks "Did you talk to him?" Muggerman says "Yeah. Friendly lush invited me to a cold beer. I didn't take it". Danny says "Did he know this man?" Muggerman says "I asked him, and he said he never had the pleasure. All the other citizens of this alley never had the pleasure, I checked". Danny asks "What's that in your hand?" Muggerman says "This? Oh, I almost forgot. It's a ticket for parking made out to Charles Crandall. He was overparked in a loading zone. He can snap his fingers at it now, huh?" Danny says "Anything else?" Muggerman says "That's all. Not a thing. Nothing. Except that expensive watch on his wrist". Danny says "No wallet, no identification, just the parking ticket?" Muggerman says "That's all. A wristwatch and a parking ticket. Not much for a grown man to leave behind, is it Danny?"
