Mr. Beers. A few minutes thereafter.
Mr. Griffin. Do you recall an automobile moving out of the ramp? I mean out of the garage area and going up the Main Street ramp shortly before Mr. Oswald was shot?
Mr. Beers. Yes; there was an armored car parked in the driveway near the top of the Commerce Street entrance, and there was a black squad car, I believe I am correct, that backed up the ramp to Main Street in the direction of Main Street. I didn’t look right up there and see what he did. He never came back down the ramp.
Mr. Griffin. This is a car that you recall driving onto Main Street?
Mr. Beers. It backed up onto Main Street, sir.
Mr. Griffin. I see.
Mr. Beers. It backed from the basement and backed up Main Street toward what would be the entrance way to the ramp.
Mr. Griffin. Before that car was moved, was backed up onto the Main Street ramp, do you recall any car driving in a forward direction up the Main Street ramp?
Mr. Beers. No; I don’t.
Mr. Griffin. Do you recall how much traffic there was in and out of the basement while you were stationed there?
