Expert answer:Adam and Mary are at a local bar, celebrating Mary’s 30th birthday. Adam and Mary’s friend, Jim, walks into the bar and joins them. During their conversation, Jim shares that he has not been feeling well lately. He’s been having headaches, dizziness and some nausea. Jim also shares that he was recently fired from his job as a bank teller because he was accused of taking money from the bank drawer. Adam tries to cheer Jim up and offers to buy him a drink. Jim starts yelling and screams at Adam, “I don’t need your help!” Adam places his hand on Jim’s shoulder to calm him down. Jim knocks Adam’s hand off his shoulder. Jim then grabs a beer bottle off the bar and hits Adam along the left side of his face. The bottle breaks, causing a deep cut near Adam’s right eye. Mary stands up and tries to push Jim away from Adam. Jim slaps Mary across the face. The bartender calls 911. Officers arrive within a few minutes and arrest Jim for assault.Jim and Mary are taken by ambulance to the ER. Jim receives 10 stitches for a cut along his left eye.
