I interviewed the mother of Oper#2 vi,a phone on 01103199 relative to the condition of Qper#2. Mrs FERRANTE advised me that her son
did not remember how the accident occurred. Due to Oper#2 having a concussion this lack of memory is understandable. I advised Mrs
I FERRANTE that she should attempt 10 get her son to write down any information that should come to mind when and if he remembers it.
