John
Brewer was manager of Hardy's Shoe Store in Oak Cliff. After hearing
a news flash that J.
D. Tippit
had been shot nearby, he saw a man acting strangely outside the shop:
"The police cars were racing up and down Jefferson with their
sirens blasting and it appeared to me that this guy was hiding from
them. He waited until there was a break in the activity and then he
headed west until he got to the Texas Theatre."
Brewer
went into the theatre and spoke to Warren
Burroughs,
the assistant manager. Burroughs had seen him enter the balcony of
the theatre. When
the police arrived Brewer accompanied the officers into the cinema
where he pointed out the man he had seen acting in a suspicious manner.
After a brief struggle Lee Harvey Oswald
was arrested.
