We were scared sl, too, barefoot. But the National Guard had trapped our car and we had no way to leave. We asked them if we could just drive away, but they wouldn't let us, they made us (all 4 of us) get out. That is when I got hit. I was in the backseat. Ever tried to get out of the backseat of a VW Bug in a hurry? We ran to the end of the street-we had to, the Guard was doing the sweep. I remember somebody let me sit in his car-he was a Boston cop. I felt liked he was my guardian angel at the time. It was really scary. I wondered if I would ever get home.
