(118,379 posts)LHO was employed at the school depository. Several witnesses testified LHO had carried a long paper bag, which he allegedly said contained curtain rods, into the depository on the morning of the shooting. Several employees at the depository said they had seen LHO on the sixth floor shortly before the shooting. JFK was shot at 12:30. Various witnesses on the ground saw a rifle pointing from the sixth floor depository corner window at the time of the assassination. Immediately after 12:30 LHO left the depository, and shortly thereafter LHO's rifle was found inside the depository near the sixth floor corner window with three spent cartridges, later dertermined to match the rifle. LHO meanwhile evidently returned to the Dallas neighborhood Oak Cliff (where he then lived in a rooming house), as arrested in the Texas Theater in Oak Cliff around 1:50 after sneaking into the movie theater without paying. He was in possession of a pistol, consistent with the weapon used in the murder of a police officer around 1:15, and various witnesses identified LHO as the shooter in that second shooting
