Mr. Ball. On the pavement?

Mr. Weitzman. Yes, sir.

Mr. Ball. Anywhere near the curb?

Mr. Weitzman. Approximately, oh, I would say 8 to 12 inches from the curb, something like that.

Mr. Ball. Off the record.

(Off record discussion.)

Mr. Ball. What did you do after that?

Mr. Weitzman. After that, we entered the building and started to search floor to floor and we started on the first floor, second floor, third floor and on up, when we got up to the fifth or sixth floor, I forget, I believe it was the sixth floor, the chief deputy or whoever was in charge of the floor, I forget the officer's name, from the sheriff's office, said he wanted that floor torn apart. He wanted that gun and it was there somewhere, so myself and another officer from the sheriff's department, I can't remember his name, he and I proceeded until we——

Mr. Ball. Was his name Boone?

Mr. Weitzman. That is correct, Boone and I, and as he was looking over the rear section of the building, I would say the northwest corner, I was on the floor looking under the flat at the same time he was looking on the top side and we saw the gun, I would say, simultaneously and I said, "There it is" and he started hollering, "We got it." It was covered with boxes. It was well protected as far as the naked eye because I would venture to say eight or nine of us stumbled over that gun a couple times before we thoroughly searched the building.
