(Testimony of Ted Callaway)
Mr. Ball.
All right. When you came to this position, you say you saw a taxicab?
Mr. Dulles.
Where is this position on this chart? Right here?
Mr. Callaway.
It would be about right here. I come off the porch here.
Mr. Dulles.
Point 29?
Mr. Callaway.
Yes.
Mr. Ball.
You saw a taxicab where, on photo 29?
Mr. Callaway.
Right here.
Mr. Ball.
Let's mark an arrow there, about where you saw the taxicab. The arrow marks the position of the taxicab. You saw a man?
Mr. Callaway.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
He was crossing Patton?
Mr. Callaway.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball.
Was that to the south or the north of the taxicab? Closer to you than the taxicab?
Mr. Callaway.
Yes.
Mr. Ball.
Was he running or walking?
Mr. Callaway.
He was running.
Mr. Ball.
And where were you when you noticed he had the gun? Or where was he when you noticed he had the gun?
Mr. Callaway.
When I first saw the gun, he had already crossed from here to here and was coming up this sidewalk.
Mr. Ball.
Coming up the sidewalk on which side of Patton?
Mr. Callaway.
West side of Patton.
Mr. Ball.
And did he continue to come?
Mr. Callaway.
Yes.
Mr. Ball.
And did you say anything to him?
Mr. Callaway.
Yes.
Mr. Ball.
What did you say?
Mr. Callaway.
I hollered "Hey, man, what the hell is going on?" When he was right along here.
Mr. Ball.
Make a mark there where he was when you yelled, "What the hell is going on?" "X" marks the place where the man with the gun was when you yelled at him?
Mr. Callaway.
That is right.
Mr. Dulles.
Would you mark it on this chart, too--Exhibit 537?
Mr. Callaway.
Right along here about 27. I guess. That would be it. You see, here is where I was, sir. And then he was right there when I hollered at him.
Mr. Dulles.
I don't get this. There is an alleyway there, apparently.
Mr. Callaway.
That is right.
Mr. Dulles.
But here is where the squad car was.
Mr. Callaway.
That is right.
Mr. Dulles.
And here is where the cab was.
Mr. Callaway.
That is right.
Mr. Dulles.
He had come all the way down?
Mr. Callaway.
He had come from there through this yard and cut behind this taxicab, over to this side of the street.
Mr. Dulles.
So he was there, then?
Mr. Callaway.
No, sir. I didn't holler at him until he came up to here. He was running up this sidewalk.
Mr. Dulles.
He was going south on Patton?
Mr. Callaway.
On the west side of the street.
Representative Ford.
You saw him run from about the taxicab--
Mr. Callaway.
Across the street, up this sidewalk.
Mr. Dulles.
About how far is that? Fifty feet or more?
Mr. Callaway.
Oh, it is more than that. From here down to there, I think is about 300 feet.
Mr. Ball.
Mark on this diagram, which is 537, where the man was, and the course he took.
Mr. Callaway.
Well, now, when I first saw him he was right here. Then he came across here, down this way.
