Wayne I thought it did but I tink that is due to still pictures.Here's a video showing what appears to be two busses chasing the limo up Stemons Freeway.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnrcyCMMxnYtoward the end of this notice the funny walking cop.I think he is pacing off yardage evidentaly from the Dal tx bldg.

Joe, I thought I read somewhere that the drivers would not stop, Then there is the two cabluck photos taken one after the other of the aftermath from the press bus he was riding in, and it seems like i read that some press caught car rides from trade mart to parkland.

Joe, I thought since cabluck had to take is photos from the bus I was under the impression that they did not stop, Then I ran into this interview where Charles Brehm wanted to set the record straight and found this quote ( In the meantime, I became surrounded with newspeople from the two buses. They selected me to talk. In that group, I was telling them that there were rifle shots and that they came from up in the corner of the School Book Depository or up in the corner of the building across from it. One of them asked how I knew they were rifle shots; was I ever in the Army? And I slid the jacket up and showed them my damaged arm here from bullet wounds and told them that I had been in the Ranger battalions.) So if they did not stop and there is no photos of press pouring out of two parked buses on Elm there is a problem with Brehm's interview.http://karws.gso.uri.edu/JFK/history/th ... Brehm.html
