Two policemen and a criminal can be seen in the picture. The criminal is in handcuffs. The policemen are taking him to the police car. He’s going to be taken to the police station. The picture was taken at night. The lights of the police cars are on. The policemen are wearing uniforms and the criminal is wearing casual clothes. He looks like a young man. His hair is very short. I don’t know what kind of crime he has done. Maybe he stole something from a shop, broke into a house, attacked somebody or tried to rob someone. Maybe he was aggressive and fought in a bar or beat up somebody.
When they arrive at the police station the policemen on duty are going to investigate what had happened. They are going to collect his data and ask him to confess what he had done. Maybe he’s going to spend the night in a prison cell or he may go home if his crime isn’t so serious.
It’s not a pleasant picture. I definitely wouldn’t like to be in his place. I would feel awkward and ashamed. But, fortunately, I have never been arrested and I hope that I will never be.
