Officer who arrested Oswald dies

The policeman who arrested Lee Harvey Oswald after John F Kennedy was assassinated has died, aged 76.

Nick McDonald apprehended Oswald at a Dallas cinema moments after Kennedy was shot on November 22 1963.

"He made a fist and, bam, hit me right between the eyes," Mr McDonald said years afterward. "Knocked my hat off. I came back and hit him."

It wasn't until later in the day that the officer realised whom he had captured.
