Detective Walthers asked Tague where he had been standing, they discover on the upper part of the Main Street south curb a "very fresh scar" impact that looked like a bullet had struck there and taken a small chip out of the curbs concrete
Forensic tests by the FBI reveal that the chipped bullet mark impact location did not have any copper metal residue, such as those required by the 6.5 mm military jacketed copper encased bullets, allegedly, fired from the Texas Book Depository.
Soon after the shots were fired Tague was approached by a Dallas sheriff detective, Buddy Walthers, who had noticed that Tague had specks of blood on his right facial cheek.
Tague later testifies that the first shot he recalled hearing occurred after the Presidential limousine had already completed the 120-degree slow turn from Houston Street onto Elm Street and then straightened out.
Walthers tells Tague it looked like a bullet had been fired from one of the Houston and Elm Streets intersection buildings and had hit the curb.
