INVESTIGATION,
On 05-03-99,at about! :00 p.rn., I obtaineda 6Q-minule videocassette tape from a companycalled Video Monitoring Services
of America, LP., located at 100 Broadway, Suite A21O, Denver, Colorado, 303-733-8000, as follow up to DN 1108. Said videotape contained livecoverage from Denvertelevision stationKCNC TV, a CBS affiliate, for the time period 9'00 p.m. to 10:00p.rn, April 20, 1999.
Upon reviewing the tape, which starts out with anchors Aimee Sporerand Bill Stuart. I located a series of three previously recorded interviews with Columbine students. This section was located approximately 35 minutes into the tape. The tlrst interview is with a white male, wearing a white ballcap, and a graycolored t-shirt underneath an open light coloredplaid shin This student.later identified as John Vandemark (10mgrade), saidtbe following: '" was in the Biologyroom.up above or right above the stairs and we didn't hear anything downstairs earlier. But uh, they came up the stairs to us and it sounded likea big tight was going on in the halls, we thought it might be a senior prankor something and it sounded like people slamming up againstdoors and then a big gunshot and a teacher ran by with a bloody shoulder."
The second interviewwas with a white male, wearinga black baseball cap. backwards, and a white t-shirt underneath a light colored plaid shirt This student, later identified as Christopher Wisher (10th grade), said the following: "I was in back of the school behind the cafeteria when we heard what sounded fireworks, so we went back, We started running. We came back. weJust figured It was fireworks, We lookedup. Wesaw two kidsin trenchcoats with guns and another ktd just standing there on the side of the school, in white. We saw them. one of them turned at us...yes, toward us. We were probably 100 yardsaway We fel! to the groundand then the bulletssopped. I don't knowwhat he wasdoing,he might have been reloading or something, so we gal back up. We looked over. We saw the kid In the whitethrowing the bombson top of the school. It was some kind of grenade or something. I don't know what it was:'

-Investigator Greg McComas CIVILIAN WITNESSES (W) Vandemark, Jonathan 02-20-83 (Student - Columbine High School) 6888 S. Yukon Ct. Littleton. CO. 80123 (303) 979-4878
SUMMARY; 05-Q4..99rruesday Per information control sheet #1688, I contacted (W)Vandemark reference information he may have on the
suspects inthis case. 09:30am - I contacted (W)Vandemark at his residence. He stated, on 04-20-99 at approx. 1l:22am, he was taking a test in Mr. Peterson's science class, when he heard a loud boom. At the time he felt it was probably some type of mishap in the science lab and continued to work on his test A few minutes later, he overheard teachers in the hallway talking and stating they thought there were gunshots in the school. At approximately the same time he heard people screaming and running up the stairs, from the lunch room area.
(W)Vandemark stated, he then observed Mr. Sanders, being helped by another teacher, Mr. Johnson, walk past his classroom and into the classroom next door. He noticed Sanders head was down and he could see a lot of blood on the upper right sideof Sanders chest By that time he was hearing rapid gunshots and someexplosions. He and the other students got down into the comer of the classroom and turned the over tables to hide behind.

- 1mhis locarion, he could see out of one of the two doors in the classroom into the hallway He explained each those doors had a window in it, about four to five feet offthe floor y"
(W)Vandemark stated, the gunshots and explosions continued for what seemed to be about thirty minutes. He then observed two individuals with guns come down the hall and, he thought, glance into the room. They then walked away for a second and he heard another shot The two individuals returned and starting banging on the door to the other science room, where Mr. Sanders was,trying to gel in. He observed both lean down, then saw they hadwhat appeared to be a bomb. He described the device all being a white cylinder about one foot longand one and a half inches round. The two taped the device onto the wall, near the door to the Sanders room and walked back down the hallway, toward the library At that point he heard more gunshots and people screaming. (W) Vandemark stated, he watched the device on the wall and saw it was sparking and smoking for a short time It thenlet off a largepuff of smoke, aboutthree foot longand stopped all activity (W)Vandemark estimated the gunshots continued in the area of the library for approximately another hour He and the other students remained in the classroom, behind the tables for about an additional forty-five minutes, unt:iI the SWAT team enteredand ledthem out (W) Vandemark explained, that due to the height of the windows in the doors of the classroom, he was not able to observe a complete description of both gunmen. He described the first one as being tall and skinny with long dark hair, wearing a black shirt, black pants and a black hat, which was on backwards. He also saw that the individual had a small black"two handled" gun strapped around his neck. He stated he did not personally know tne individual but had seen him around school before. He stated he had seen the photographs shown by the media
I couldpositively identify the individual as Dylan Klebold. He described "the other kid" as being about one foot shorterthan Dylan, with dark hair that was spiked on top with blonde tips. That individual was wearing a white T'-sbirt and had on what appeared to be a dark green backpack. He was unable to see what type of pants were wornbut stated he also had a gun strapped around his neck, that appeared to be similar as the one carried by Dylan. (W) Vandemark stated he is not one hundred percent surethe individual was Eric Harris. He could not recall seeing Harris around school prior to the incident and did not think the gunman resembled the photograph shown by the media. He then stated it was possibly the individual was Harris and hejust lookedolderthanthe photos. (W) Vandemark stated, as he was watching the gunmen outside his classroom he couldtell they were talking back
and forth He was unable to hear anything said, due to the fire alarms He also stated he had not noticed any usual activity at the school that morning or on the priorday (W)Vandemark drew a diagram of the area where he was hiding and observed the gunman. That diagram is attached to this report

He told him thata person could get information on howto buildbombs "'om the Internet and from the school library. Walker Staled Harris never claimed to have made a bomb or blown up any bombs,
Walker toldme that in December of 1998 Enc Harris asked him to purchase a shotgun for him. When Walkerwanted to know why, Harris stated he wanted it for hunting. I asked Walker if it didn't strike him funny that Harris would be interested in hunting. Hestated it did not becausea lotof kidsgo hunting. Walker's 18th birthday was on November 28. 199&. Hestated he celebrated his birthday with his family and did not see Harris on that day. Walker believes Harris may have heard him talkingabouthis birthday a few days beforeit actually occurred. Walker suggested that Harrisknewthat because of his 18th birthday that Walkerwould be old enough to purchase a weapon for him.
Walker stated that Harris asked himabout buying the shotgun at the beginning of one of their class periods for German class. Hesaid that Harris askedhim if he was 18. When he said yes, Harris replied, "Then you can buy me a gun." Walker stated he replied, "I'm sure I could, but I wouldn't." I asked Walker why he felt Harris wouldask him to make the purchase. Walker said it was becauseHarris"confided in me." He quicklyadded, "but not about his dark side,"

On May 5, 1999, this investigator met with Daniel Abrams at his residence. Present during the interview was his mother, Nancy Abrams. Daniel stated that he had gone to the cafeteria after completing his fourth period science class. He said he stopped at his locker prior to going down to the cafeteria and believed that it would have been approximately 11:17 a.m. when he arrived there. He was shown a diagram of the cafeteria and asked if he could recall where he had been seated. Daniel marked table M by circling it and placing his initials next to it. He advised that there had been several others at his table: John Owens and Ii? J. capra. Daniel stated that had been at the table for a few minutes when his friend John began to sit down. He said at that very instant, he heard what sounded to him like a gun shot, corning from outside, just west of his location. He said that John Owens told him that he just saw somone outside get shot and fall to the ground. Daniel advised that one of the school custodi~~ inside thhe cafeteria'S west end began directing students towards the stairs. Daniel stated that as he was 1

looking out the windows in the direction where he had heard the gunshot, he saw a male subject dressed in a black trench coat, black pants and possibly wearing sunglasses, walking in a southwest direction. He said this person was holding what appeared to him to be a long gun, in his right hand t and that the gun was held with the barrel pointed to the ground, his arm was down his side. Daniel said this person might have been Dylan Klebold but he was not sure. He advised that he has seen Klebold and Harris on occasion but never spoke to them or associated with them. Daniel said that this person walked purposefully and had passed by the window adjacent to where he and his friends has been. Daniel advised that he crawled on the cafeteria floor for a short distance and then ran toward Coach Andres who was holding a door open which leads to the aUditorium stage and he exited the school through a door by the entrance to the gym. He said he then hopped a fence and ran into Clement Park. Daniel advised that on the day of this incident, he had been wearing blue jeans, a white Hard Rock Cafe T-shirt, and White tennis shoes. He did advise that he had heard something about the phrase of the day being nthis will not be a good day· or words to that effect, however, he could not recall when, where, or how he became aware of it. Investigation continues.

student, cafeteria witness. On May 26,
1999, this investigator re-contacted Daniel Abrams at his residence. Present during the interview was his mother, Nancy Abrams. Daniel was asked i f he could provide any additional details about the the person he saw outside the cafeteria believed to be involved in the shooting on April 20, 1999. Daniel stated that the Subj ect may have been wearing black pants. He said he did see the person's hair and that it was light brown in color. This was - he reasoned, why he thought this person was Dylan Klebold, as he had seen photos of both in the papers and on television shortly after the incident. He said this person was approximately 6' tall and may or may not have been wearing sunglasses. He stated that the person had something on which concealed a portion of his face and this could have been sunglasses or the collar of his coat. As to the weapon this person was carrying, Daniel could only add that it was definitely not a handgun, and was black or dark gray in color.
JC-001-002.278 1
Daniel was shown a number of photo arrays, each having six individual photos. He did state that the photo of Dylan Klebold came closest to the appearance of the person he saw and has described. Nothing further.

JEFFERSON COUNTY PI STRICT ATTORNEY'S OFFICE SlJ'PPLEM!NTAL REPORT COLUMBINE HIGH SCHOOL Pate: 5/5/99 CONTROL NUMBER: 2584
Pocket Nlllllber: FBI # 174A-PN-57419 Investigator: Vondenkamp
On 5/4/99 I interviewed 15 year old CBS student Mada Alami at her horne in Littleton, Co. Nada's father Mohammed Alarni was present for this interview. Nade advised me that she was in the cafeteria at CHS for "A" lunch on 4/20/99. She arrived at the cafeteria around 11:20am, and had walked from the administration area where she is a student assistance in the attendance office. She recalled walking alone to the cafeteria through the main hallway. She arrived at the cafeteria and sat at her "normal" area below the stairs. I provided Nads a drawing of the cafeteria, Which depicted all the tables and their location in the cafeteria. I pointed out specifio areas, such as food line, kitchen and west windows of the cafeteria to give Nada a better understanding of the lay-out in this drawing. Nads looked at the drawing and pointed to table 1.1. as the table she and several friende were seated at. She stated that her friends at table LL we:!:"e CBS students: Lindsy Dowling, Julie McGinley, Erica McCluagherty, Kyly Morten, Nick Antonio, Torri Owens, Candice Kuehman and Drew McCuskey. Nada recalled that she was seated with her back to the cafeteria, facing the east wall. Nada did not recall seeing any unusually large duffle bags in the cafete:!:"ia. She did not recall seeing anyone ca:!:"rying large duffle bags earlier in the day, or the previous day. Nada circled and placed an X by table LL where she sat. She recalled that shortly after sitting down, around 11:30 she heard and explosion and saw kids stand up and look out the west windows. 1
JC.o01· 002286
she first thought it was a senior prank. Then Mr Sanders and a janitor started yelling for everyone to get down. She and her friends got under the table. She then heard what she believed to be gunfire outside. The crowd in the cafeteria began running towards the stairs near her table. She ran up the stairs with a large group of people, and stated she was in the middle of them. As she was running up the stairs and turned at the landing, she saw two white men below wearing dark trenchcoats inside the student entrance near "rebel corner". She did net see any weapons, but recalled they were right inside the student entrance doors. She said it was a "very quick look" as she was running up the stairs and could give no physical description of these two males because she did not see their faces. I asked Mada how she knew they were white males, she responded that "she just did". She did not recall what type of shoes they were wearing. She then heard several rapid gunshots and believed the shots were being fired at the kids on the steps by these men inside. She continued running up the steps and down the hallway. She cut through the auditorium and out into the main hallway with several stUdents. They then ran east towards the administration office exit doors. Nada celieved there was about 25 kids in this group. They exited through the administration doors (main exit>. She recalled the windows in the exit doors were shattered out. The group exited the cuilding and ran to Clemont park. She continued running and went to CHS senior Erica Jenning's home on Leawood street. Mada stated there were about 4-5 students there, whom she did not really know. She recalled Lindsy Portencastco, Lane (unknown last namel and Dominic (unknown last name> there also.
Mada called her parents from
Erica's home. Nada was wearing tan pants, blue/White tank top. Jansport pack with reading glasses, calculator, school books in it.
She left a green black shirt and
She had no further information regarding the TCM
or any further information regarding the shootings on 4/20/99.
