Police officer writing out victim certificates

Tokuo Fujita, then 28, a police officer from the Ujina Police Station, surrounded by victims, is writing out victim certificates for survivors in front of the Hiroshima District Monopoly Bureau, located on the east side of Miyuki Bridge. The desk was placed on the south side of the "Minami-machi 3-chome" streetcar stop (now called "Minami-machi 6-chome"). Mr. Fujita, who had just finished working the night shift, experienced the atomic bombing at the police station about 4.7 kilometers from the hypocenter. His forehead was cut by broken window glass, but he rushed to the police box on the west side of Miyuki Bridge and helped injured citizens and students. (Distance from hypocenter 2400 meters.)
