that afternoon with Mrs. Brewer. Stephens described him
as a white male of average build, in his 30's, 5°10" to 11"
tall, weighing 165 pounds and wearing a dark suit presenting
a neat clean appearance (tenphis 44-1987 Sub A sec. 1).
Like Stephens, Anchutz was a resident of the rooming
_ house and in his room at the time of the shooting. Also
like Stephens, Anchutz occupied a room adjacent to "John
Willard.” He recalls watching television in his roan that
afternoon when he heard a gun shot. Inmediately, he went
to the door and as he opened it saw a mm running toward hin.
This man covered his face as he ran and carried a blanket
wrapped bundle. Anchutz addressed the mm, saying: "I
thought I heard a shot." The man responded: "Yeh, it was a
shot."" Anchutz described the man as 6' tall with a slim
build and in his 30's (Memphis 44-1987 Sub A sec. 1).

and Anchutz saw) containing valuable pieces of physical
evidence was recovered shortly after the shooting.
