Senator Cooper. And have you seen him since?
Mr. McDonald. No, sir.
Senator Cooper. But somebody has identified him to you?
Mr. McDonald. Yes, sir.
Mr. Ball. We will examine him next week, sir.
Senator Cooper. May I ask—if the suspect was pointed out to you, why was it you did not go directly to him, but you searched other persons?
Mr. McDonald. Well, usually on information of that sort, you have to weigh it a little bit to make sure you get the right person. He could have been mistaken. If a suspect was in that theatre, I wanted to make sure I got him, and not overlook him.
Senator Cooper. You said, though, that before you went into the theatre, where the seats were located, that a man pointed out to you a person who he claimed was the suspect.
Mr. McDonald. Yes, sir; he said that that was the man that had acted suspiciously in running into the theatre.
Senator Cooper. That was the man that was identified to you?
