Curry and signed by all four arresting officers: Gerald Hill, Ray Hawkins, Paul Bentley and M.N. McDonald. Letter reads in part, "…we received information via the police radio that an officer had been shot…There was a pool of blood about two feet north of the squad car in the street…we received additional information that the suspect was in the Texas Theater…Officer McDonald…observed the arrested party sitting in the third seat. As he approached this suspect, the suspect said, 'This is it', and sprang from the seat. Officer McDonald began to grapple with the suspect and the suspect got his hand on a gun that was stuck inside his shirt. As the officer and the suspect wrestled for the gun, the suspect pulled the trigger once and the gun snapped, but did not fire…after a struggle in which the suspect resisted violently he was disarmed and handcuffed…" Two page document on two sheets measures 8.5" x 11".
