'My roommate overdosed' said Tom. 

'Ok, what medication?'

'Over the counters. Paracetamol' 

'Ok then, sending out an ambulance now.'

'Thank you.' 

The ambulance arrived, Tom giving the dispatcher updates constantly. Then he notices something.

'In our bathroom bin, there's an empty carton of ibuprofen. I bought that last week and it was sealed this morning-I saw it when I went to get new toothpaste from the cupboard'

'Ok then I'll pass that along to the paramedics.' 

Then there was a knock at the door

'HELLO?!?!' Yelled  a male voice.

'They are here' Tom said, hanging up. 'UPSTAIRS' he yelled. They paramedics-two men, one in his 30s or 40s and one late 20s.

'Dan go fetch the stretcher for me.' Said the older man. Tom watched on, not knowing what to do.

'How long ago did this happen son?' He asked.

'Ten minutes I found him. I heard him collapse. I don't know if that is related.' He said.

'Ok then. Oh there you are dan' he helped Dan get charlie onto the stretcher and brought him out of the house.

'Can you drive?' Yelled the younger of the two.

'Yes that's my car' said Tom, gesturing to the silver Honda on the curb. 

Dan nodded, and brought charlie into the ambulance. Tom grabbed  his keys and hopped into his car. The ambulance took of, and Tom followed behind.
