Arriving at the riverbank in a wheel chair, accompanied by two classic Russian drunkards, the woman (possibly man, also a homeless alcoholic) had been picked up by one of the men (the one with dark hair) and thrown into the water like a sack of potatoes. At that point, a police car arrived. The dark-haired man immediately jumped into the water to play the scene of an idyllic afternoon swimming. Witness A ran home to fetch the camera. On returning to the scene, the police officers were finishing checking the drunks’ wet papers and had obviously found them belonging to upright citizens with permanent residence permits in Moscow. By the time the camera was ready to record, the police had disappeared and the freshly dunked woman (or man, according to surveillance interpreter B), now on his/her knees (the rest of the legs having been amputated) could begin her job — taking care of his/her companions.
