The appeal comes as Sergeant Benjamin continues to receive medical care following the collision. Police have not released further details about his condition or the circumstances surrounding the incident.

What kind of blood type he need??? All the times we listen for the same message without describing type .. if 10 people went in to Donate ..why they take all and make the human being alive…so,what they do with the other type of blood don’t match from the primal needed??? You sold for other well being buyers??? Or what that hell you never give accountability from how you SHARE the exceed?.
Using the need of blood for one patient, as a way to replenish the blood bank is just sick. It also gives the impression that they’re hoping the general public is stupid. Do better hospital!
Maybe his blood type is AB positive…which would be odd
