Huddleston walked up there, we were sitting there talking, and I guess it was just few seconds until Mir. Wolschansky walked up, and Wolschansky had paper in his hand, don't remember whether he had it l in both hands or just one, but it seems z to me he had the paper something. like this (indicating by holding out both hands) and Mir. Huddleston pulled his gun and says. "Throw up your hands" " and heard Wolschansky say, "1 have . got warrant for you." and he says, "Throw up your hands," and about that time they met and MT. Huddle- ston had his gun like that (indicating) pointing in towards Wolschansky's stomach and Huddleston reached , around him, the best could see, and then MT. Wolschansky seemed to grab him, and then they began to tussle. , and when they did that of course I got little bit leary and tried to hunt a hiding place, and I got up and the , express wagon was standing behind me with couple of boxes on it and l got behind that for little protector, and when looked back around they were about twenty feet, I guess, from where they started in, and MT. Hud- dleston seemed to be give out or something, leaning backwards, and about that time the gun went off and he fell.
 -s O. In what position were they at the time the shot was fired?
