Mr. Belin.

So your vehicle wouldn't have quite gotten up to where the Police car was?

Mr. Benavides.

No; it didn't.
Mr. BELIN. How fast were you going when you watched the policeman getting out of his car?

Mr. Benavides.

Oh, I imagine not maybe 25 miles an hour. I never did pay much attention to it.

Mr. Belin.

You say you stopped the car right away? Your vehicle, I mean?

Mr. Benavides.

Yes, sir. I just didn't exactly stop because I just pulled it into the curb.

Mr. Belin.

Then you say you heard a shot and you then ducked?

Mr. Benavides.

Yes. No; I heard the shot before I pulled in.

Mr. Belin.

Oh, I see. You heard the shot and pulled in and then what?

Mr. Benavides.

Then I ducked down.

Mr. Belin.

Then what happened?

Mr. Benavides.

Then I heard the other two shots and I looked up and the Policeman was in, he seemed like he kind of stumbled and fell.

Mr. Belin.

Did you see the Policeman as he fell?

Mr. Benavides.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin.

What else did you see?

Mr. Benavides.

Then I seen the man turn and walk back to the sidewalk and go on the sidewalk and he walked maybe 5 foot and then kind of stalled. He didn't exactly stop. And he threw one shell and must have took five or six more steps and threw the other shell up, and then he kind of stepped up to a pretty good trot going around the corner.
Mr. BELIN. You saw the man going around the corner headed in what direction on what street?

Mr. Benavides.

On Patton Street. He was going south.

Mr. Belin.

He was going south on Patton Street?

Mr. Benavides.

Yes; do you know Dootch Motors?

Mr. Belin.

Do I know Dootch Motors?

Mr. Benavides.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin.

Was he on the east or the west side of Patton as he was going?

Mr. Benavides.

On the east side.

Mr. Belin.

You saw him going on the east?

Mr. Benavides.

Yes, sir.

Mr. Belin.

How far did you see him go down Patton ?

Mr. BENAVIDES. Just as far as the house would let the view go. In other words, as soon as he went past the house, I couldn't see him any more.

Mr. Belin.

Now, the first time that you saw him, what was his Position

Mr. Benavides.

He was standing, the first time I saw him. The man that shot him?

Mr. Belin.

Yes.

Mr. Benavides.

He was standing like I say, on the center in front of the windshield, right directly on the right front fender of the car.

Mr. Belin.

He was not moving when you saw him?

Mr. Benavides.

No; he wasn't moving then.
Mr. BELIN. All right, after you saw him turn around the corner, what did you do?
Mr. BENAVIDES. After that, I set there for just a few minutes to kind of, I thought he went in back of the house or something. At the time, I thought maybe he might have lived in there and I didn't want to get out and rush right up. He might start shooting again.
That is when I got out of the truck and walked over to the Policeman, and he was lying there and he had, looked like a big clot of blood coming out of his head, and his eyes were sunk back in his head, and just kind of made me feel real funny. I guess I was really scared.

Mr. Belin.

Did the Policeman say anything?

Mr. BENAVIDES. The Policeman, I believe was dead when he hit the ground, because he didn't put his hand out or nothing.

Mr. Belin.

Where was the Policeman as he fell, as you saw him?

Mr. Benavides.

I saw him as he was falling. The door was about half way
