December 1, 1963 Mr. J. E. Curry Chief of Police Sir: Re: Interview of Reserve Officer, Patrolman William J. Newman, 317 Cn December 1, 1963 Reserve Officer, Patrolman William J. Newman was interviewed by the under- signed officers as to any information he might have concerning the shooting of Lee Harvey Oswald which was not covered in nis original report dated November 26, 1963. Newman stated, after reading his original report, that he recalled observing an unknown white male run down the Main Street ramp into the basement of the City Hall, approximately one minute prior to the shooting of Oswald. This unknown male disappeared into the group of newsmen and police officers and was not observed by Newman again. Patrolman Newman states that he observed this individual just prior to someone in the crowd announcing, "Here he comes!" Less than a minute lapsed from this time until the shooting of Oswald. Newman states that he did not know Jack Ruby. At this time Patrolman Newman has not been con- tacted by any federal agency. Respectfully submitted, Sales Jack Special Revill, Service Lieutehant Bureau C.C. Naccon C. C. Wallace, Lieutenant Special Service Bureau jh 79
