front of Bobby Moore's car and pointed his pistol at the occupants,
telling them to halt. Bobby Moore, who was driving the car, immed-
lately screaned and the car started forward. Agent heard several
shots which were avidently fired by Miller and also observed that
Agent Nichols fired several shots at the car. Sergeants Freemuth
and Kempster had proceeded from the sidewalk to the rear of the
Ausurn coupe, and Sergeant Freefmth fired some shots with his pistol
at the car. Sergeant Kempster endeavored to fire at the car with his
machine gun, but due +o the people on both sides of the street an
the fact that o man was alighting from a parked car directly in the
line of fire, he had to withhold his fire and the car proceeded approx-
imately one hundred feet before he was able to open fire with the
machine gun, at which time he fired several bursts at the car.
The writer did not endeavor to fire any shots from where
he was located, inasmuch as Sergeants Kempster and Freeuuth were in
his line of fire and Agent Nichols was immediately on the other side
of the coupe and micht have been struck had any bullets passed through
the coupe. All of the Agents on the street, together with Sergeants
Kempster and Freemuth ran down Galt Avenue after the car to Clarendon
Avenue, at which point the car was seen to turn right. Upon arriving
et Clarendon Ayenue the car could not be seen. Upon instructions of
Special Agent Guinane we returned to the Sherone Apartments, at which
point word was received that the car of 3obby Moore had been located.
Respectfully submi ttad,
