After the LRPD officers had handcuffed the suspect, they called an ambulance, and Jimmy asked them to call another one as he suspected he might have a fracture. The hook that had landed on his forearm still hurt, with little relief, and, ironically, his right hand and forearm, which he used to fire the gun, felt somewhat better in comparison.
After the ambulance arrived, Jimmy and the suspect were both taken to a nearby hospital for examination. An X-ray of Jimmy's arm showed a slight fracture in his left forearm, while no fracture was seen in his right from the images. It was the first time Jimmy had sustained an injury since becoming a police officer.
He opted for a splint, finding a cast to be too cumbersome. Once his left arm was secured, Jimmy had an LRPD officer drive him back to the county police headquarters in his police car.
