Montag is now on the run. He is running towards the river. As he is heading there he hears a dreadful announcement come on to his seashell. The announcement said “Police suggest entire population in the Elm Terrace area do as follows: Everyone in every house in every street open a front or rear door or look from the windows. The fugitive cannot escape if every one in the next minute look from his house. Ready (Bradbury, 138)!” The countdown then began from ten down. He made it to the river just as the announcer made it to ten and everyone opened their doors. He was very lucky. He then jumped into the river so the Hound would loose his scent and went with the current, avoiding the search lights of the police helicopters. Montag is now in big trouble. I am hoping that he will escape and never get caught.
