There is some construction work going on there and it happened just near the
construction site.

He has informed the Regatta Centre and the police.

If you going to do a cardiac workout there, it might not be a bad idea to do
a slow lap first.

Ouch!! I suppose it is difficult to tell offhand if the wire was
deliberately set or simply due to careless indifference by the
construction ppl. Somehow I suspect it was a deliberate act.
