and tried to stop me.
He went off the side of the road.

1:22:03
I remember this car
went off the side of the road.

1:22:05
I'm just looking back.
1:22:12
I remember that.
1:22:19
I got a call at my house
about 3:30 one morning.

1:22:22
One of the patrolmen
in my department called...

1:22:25
and said, "We just arrested
this boy named David Harris...

1:22:28
"and he won't even tell us his name.
He said he wants to talk to you."

1:22:32
They told me something that really
made me interested. He'd been shot.

1:22:36
David had initially told me
that he had gone to a bar in Houston...

1:22:42
and was flirting with a young lady
and her boyfriend became upset...

1:22:46
and chased him out with a pistol,
shooting at him.

1:22:52
We knew that wasn't true.
1:22:54
I said, "David, I know you're lying to me.
1:22:57
"We go through this all the time,
all my dealings with you in the past.

1:23:01
"I don't know what you've done just yet.
1:23:03
"I know you were shot.
1:23:04
"I know you were shot doing something
that you shouldn't have been...

1:23:08
"we know you burglarized a gun shop.
We know you were driving drunk.

1:23:11
"Got witnesses who can identify you,
who can identify your truck."

1:23:16
I said, "You're caught. So tell the truth."
1:23:19
And David said, "Okay, I killed him."
1:23:25
Their home was entered while he
and his girlfriend were there alone.

1:23:31
The man was sent into the bathroom
at gunpoint and told to stay there.

1:23:37
David took the girl
and was starting to leave.

1:23:41
The man exited the apartment with a gun.
1:23:46
The man fell to the ground,
or near the ground...

1:23:48
holding onto a pole there in the
parking lot of the apartment complex...

1:23:52
and these last, whether it be two,
three, or how many shots...

1:23:55
I don't know, were fired at point-blank
or near point-blank range.
