There was an explosion of orange paint on the window.
‘What the ...’
Daly peered through the stained glass at several people gathered at the gate.
‘There he is!’ A second balloon sailed through the air.
Daly stomped to the front door.
‘What the hell do you think you’re doing?’
‘Paedo!’
A balloon burst at Daly’s feet.
‘I’m a paediatrician, you morons.’
‘See, I told you!’ one them shouted. ‘He’s a paedo.’
‘A paediatrician not a paedophile!’
‘For fuck’s sake, Colin!’
‘He’s admitting it!’
‘He’s a children’s doctor, cretin.’
‘Sorry, doctor!’ a woman said.
‘Leave before I call the police!’

Oh, that's well-done, Rob. Nice touch of the 'mob hysteria' for a suspenseful undertone.
