Mr. BALL. I understand but you were to the south of the building. You
had to be south of the building, didn't you?
Mr. ARCE. Well, I was south but I was, well, I guess you could say I
was in front of the building but not directly in front, well, I don't
know how to explain it.
Mr. BALL. Who was standing with you?
Mr. ARCE. Well, I walked away from the other guys because they were all
in front of the building and I went across the street to get a closer
view.
Mr. BALL. You walked which direction?
Mr. ARCE. I just--right across the street.
Mr. BALL. Right across Elm Street?
Mr. ARCE. Uh-huh.
Mr. BALL. The part of Elm that dead ends there?
Mr. ARCE. Yeah.
Mr. BALL. You crossed that and went on to the grassy part?
Mr. ARCE. Uh-huh.
Mr. BALL. Now, it sounded to you that the shots came from what
direction?
Mr. ARCE. From the tracks on the west deal.
Mr. BALL. How many shots did you hear?
Mr. ARCE. Three.
Mr. BALL. Did you look back at the building?
Mr. ARCE. No, I didn't think they came from there. I just looked
directly to the railroad tracks and all the people started running up
there and I just ran along with them.
Mr. BALL. Did you go up to the railroad tracks?
Mr. ARCE. Yeah.
Mr. BALL. Did you see anything up there?
Mr. ARCE. No, and they told us go back there and I went back inside the
building.
Mr. BALL. Where did you go then?
Mr. ARCE. Back inside the building.
Mr. BALL. How long did you stay in there?
Mr. ARCE. Oh, about 15 minutes and they took us down to city hall to
make statements out.
Mr. BALL. Then you made out your statement?
Mr. ARCE. Yes, sir; to the Police Department.
