It had been about a week or so since his bad episode.  Mr. Roberts had heard that there had been a bad accident with a family driving one of the automobiles.  Those new 'toys' that so many rich people seemed to be so interested in these days.  Mr. Roberts reported that it had been in the area that Douglas was often walking and visiting. He had searched to find the story so that Douglas could read it.  Douglas confirmed that he had been in that area that morning. He took the newspaper that Mr. Roberts had found and took it with him as he headed out to run some errands. 

He had paused between errands and sat down on a bench in a park near downtown finally getting to read the newspaper that Mr. Robert had found for him.  It was from the day his episode had started.  He began reading about it and decided that likely that was what had likely triggered him.  There it said that the family children had taken it out for a drive and went down roaring through the poor area and lost control running into a house after trying to avoid hitting a local child in the road.  It would have explained the sounds he had heard and the hurt children.  It said the oldest was about 17 and the youngest had only been age 5.  No one had been killed, thankfully, but there were several severe injuries among the children as well as the child they clipped had a broken leg.  The house had also been damaged and required substantial repairing.

Well, that mystery was solved.  He frowned.  Glancing around he realized he wasn't yet ready to finish his errands.  Even so, the newspaper was over a week old, he began reading through the rest of it.  He paused at one of the items and frowned as he read it again.
