Carlton grabbed the cameras and caught up with a squad that was heading in.

She and the squad made their way up the steps and towards the flat where Schmidt was staying. The living room had been wrecked by the explosion.

Cramer saw the progress on the camera. He saw an officer enter the flat and make his way through. They found Schmidt in his bedroom. He'd just got up and was staggering around. The officer barked orders at him and saw him raise his hands. Then Cramer noticed Schmidt's ears were bleeding.

The explosion had punctured his eardrums and temporarily deafened him.
