Q. What were your general observations of Mr. Warr when you guys first pulled up onto Jefferson Avenue?
A. It was basically Mr. Warr, along with another group of individuals, who were just congregating on the sidewalk, no real reason, in front of the store. And that was pretty much it.
Q. I'm not sure if I already asked this, were there other people around in that general vicinity?
A. Yes.
Q. And what kind of activity were they doing?
A. Um, there's chess games that go on on the sidewalk. There's open containers, as well.
