                    Andrew Mercado

Uniformed NYPD detective Andrew Mercado watched as his men cleaned out the scene of the explosion. He stood off by the side and observed the little human parts as they pulled them out of the car. It was too cruel to watch but he was doing his job. When a firefighter came up with the trunk of a little boy, Drew had to close his eyes and turn away. The memories that swarmed him were one's he couldn't bear. He thought about his little girl, who he presumed dead already since it'd been five years since she went missing. He thought about Katie and how he never got to tell her he wanted a second chance. Drew wanted to weep for the little boy who had passed away, but he held off his tears in front of his men. He watched as Barry gave the men directions on what to do.
