                    THE CROWD, BUT ARE TOTALLY INTERMIXED
                    WITH IT.  THEY DON'T APPEAR TO BE

SUMMARY:   THE DISTANT SURROUNDING AREA
APPEARS TO BE WATER ON ONE SIDE AND
HARD(?)-ROCK HILLS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF A
FLAT "PLAINS" TYPE AREA ON WHICH IS LOCATED
A CITY.  THE CITY APPEARS VERY DRY + DUSTY.

         THE LOCATION OF THE ACTIVITY IS IN
AN AREA OF THE CITY WHICH HAS LOW-
AND MEDIUM-HEIGHT BUILDINGS IN ABUNDANCE,
WITH SOME TALLER BUILDINGS IN THE DISTANCE,
BUT ALMOST NO VERY TALL BUILDINGS ARE
VISIBLE.  [struck through: THE] BUILDINGS CAST LONG (EVENING(?)) SHADOWS.

         THE ACTIVITY IN QUESTION INVOLVES [struck through: A]
LARGE CROWD OF PEOPLE FILLING THE STREETS.
THE [struck through: one word, illegible] DENSITY OF THE CROWD LESSENS EVENLY(?)
IN ALL DIRECTIONS.  THE CROWD CONSISTS OF
3 TYPES OF PEOPLE:
         A MAIN PERSON, MALE, WHO IS LYING ON
         THE PAVEMENT, APPARENTLY DEAD.

         LOTS OF UNIFORMED MEN IN "PURPLISH ARAB(?)"
         UNIFORMS, WITH [struck through: SHORT] CLUB-TYPE HAND
         WEAPONS, BUT SEEMINGLY NO FIREARMS.
                                                   [interlinear above caret:] BUT
         LOTS OF PEOPLE IN RANDOM DRESS, ^ MOST
         OF [struck through: WHICH] WHOM ARE WEARING BLACK

[handwritten throughout, block capitals]

          THE UNIFORMED PEOPLE ARE INVOLVED IN
CROWD CONTROL, BUT ARE ALMOST EVENLY
INTERMIXED WITH THE OTHER PEOPLE - THERE IS
LOTS OF PUSHING, SHOVING, ELBOWING, ETC. GOING ON,
BUT SEEMINGLY NO VIOLENCE, AS SUCH. THE
RANDOMLY DRESSED PEOPLE [struck through: DO NOT(?) APPEAR(?) TO]
ARE NOT ALL THAT MINDFUL OF THE UNIFORMED
PEOPLE. THERE IS A LOT OF ACTIVITY, MOTION,
AND EXCITEMENT IN THE CROWD, BUT NO STRONG
VIOLENCE WAS DETECTED.

          [struck through: EARLY(?)] PERCEPTIONS LOCATED TWO OTHER
PERSONALITIES WHICH [struck through: WERE] NOT PERCEIVED AS
BEING AT THIS SAME LOCATION:

          A [interlinear caret insert: YOUNG,] SLENDER, TALL WOMAN, WEARING [struck through: illegible]
LEATHER-LIKE PANTS W/ DIAMOND-SHAPED HOLES IN THEM.
SHE WAS IN A BUILDING W/ ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT.
          A [interlinear caret insert: YOUNG,] SLENDER, DARK-SKINNED, CURLY HAIRED MAN
IN DARK BROWN SHIRT + SLACKS. HE WAS LOCATED
IN AN OUTSIDE RELAXATION AREA.
