I stepped down to the curb and yelled:
1:02:05
"Mr. President, look over here!"
1:02:10
Then shots rang out.
1:02:13
Mary dropped to the ground, yelling,
"They're shooting! Get down!"

1:02:19
I just stood there watching.
1:02:22
The driver had stopped.
1:02:24
I don't know what was wrong with him.
1:02:29
Out of the corner of my eye...
1:02:31
...I saw a flash of light in the bushes.
1:02:34
And that last shot...
1:02:37
...just ripped his head off.
1:02:40
I looked up and saw smoke coming
from over there, on the knoll.

1:02:44
We came around to look for tracks.
1:02:46
It rained that morning
and we found a bunch.

1:02:50
Cigarette butts.
1:02:52
Someone had stood about...here.
1:03:00
Thas a good spot.
1:03:02
For the head shot.
1:03:05
Everything was just frozen.
1:03:08
Like people weren't breathing.
Like you were looking at a picture.

1:03:15
Except for one man.
1:03:17
I saw this one man running
from the corner of the Book Depository...

1:03:22
...to the parking lot.
1:03:24
It was about 11:00 a.m.
1:03:26
I was driving on Elm Street
toward the underpass in a rented car.

1:03:29
A light-blue Valiant.
1:03:31
I'll never forget that day.
There was a lot of traffic...

1:03:35
...and I stopped
alongside a green pickup truck.

1:03:38
It was very noticeable
because it had one wheel up on the curb.

1:03:42
When I saw the gun, I thought...
1:03:46
..."The Secret Service is not very secret."
1:03:49
The next morning, I went to the FBI office.
1:03:52
They showed me some pictures.
1:03:54
And I picked out three pictures
that looked like the truck's driver.

1:03:58
Thas the man.
