Mr. HARRISON. Oh.
Mr. GRIFFIN. In this series of events.
Mr. HARRISON. He was in that general area all of the time.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, did you keep an eye on him?
Mr. HARRISON. No. I wasn't particularly watching him.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Were there any other news people who were there in that
area?
Mr. HARRISON. There was a Japanese photographer on my left, immediately
to my left.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, this Officer Harrison, this position that you have
marked here as the initial position, is that also approximately the
position you were standing at the time that Oswald walked out?
Mr. HARRISON. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. So that, when you say on your left there, are
you talking about at the time that Oswald actually walked out, that is
where that Japanese photographer, newsman, was?
Mr. HARRISON. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Put an "X," if you would, put a small "J" on
that map where that man was and put a circle around it. Now, that is
where the Japanese photographer was standing at the time that Oswald
walked out----
Mr. HARRISON. Yes, sir.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Is that right? Now, where was this man with the microphone
standing?
Mr. HARRISON. He was immediately to my right.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Why don't you put an "M" and a circle around him? Now,
were there any other police officers over in this general area where
you 3 people were?
Mr. HARRISON. Yes.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Who were the other police officers?
Mr. HARRISON. I don't know.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Now, when Rio Pierce's car came out, what did
you do?
Mr. HARRISON. I got these people to move back out of the way and let
him through, and I stepped back to the rail, toward the lights there
and let him through.
Mr. GRIFFIN. All right. Now, did you have your back to the railing or
were you facing the railing?
Mr. HARRISON. Well, I had my back to the railing.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Did you watch Pierce's car go up the ramp at all?
Mr. HARRISON. I watched it until it cleared the people in that
immediate area.
Mr. GRIFFIN. How many people were there to clear out in that immediate
area, would you say?
Mr. HARRISON. Well, there was seven or eight, I would say.
Mr. GRIFFIN. You wouldn't say there were as many as 20 or 25, would you?
Mr. HARRISON. No, no.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Now, were those people all newspaper people, members of
the press, or were there some police officers?
Mr. HARRISON. There were some police officers in that area.
Mr. GRIFFIN. Uh-huh. Now, at the time that Oswald actually came out of
the jail office, how many lines of people, would you say, were strung
along in that area that you were? Was there more than one line of
people?
Mr. HARRISON. Yes.
