Sy 4 WILLIAM RUSSELL MATIX, ET AL on-site assignment conference, SA's proceeded to their respective assignment locations and began routine canvassing of these areas, to include personal contact with bank personnel and local police patrol officers in the vicinity. At 9:26 a.m. SA BENJAMIN GROGAN (accompanied in his vehicle by SA JERRY DOVE) addressed radio traffic to all assigned units that he was behind a black two-door Monte Carlo, Florida license NTJ-89), traveling north on South Dixie Highway. SA GROGAN continued to furnish description of the vehicle, its direction of travel and occupant information as well as instruct the FBI unit with local police radio equipment to request emergency back-up with marked patrol units. At approximately 9:30 a.m. SA GROGAN and DOVE had been joined in the close surveillance of the subjects vehicle by three additional FBI units, with a fourth unit closing to a distance of approximately three blocks. All units were now located ina residential neighborhood, several blocks removed from the congestion of South Dixie Highway. The subjects, becoming aware of the surveillance, began to drive in an erratic manner, apparently trying to set up a break-out situation facilitating their escape. SA GORDON MCNEILL, (Squad Supervisor) observed the Subjects loading weapons and transmitted that information. At this point SA GROGAN (first vehicle behind subjects) ordered the stop/arrest, with SA,s GROGAN and DOVE transmitting, "Felony car stop, take them, felony car stop, lets do it." SA GROGAN engaged his emergency vehicle equipment (police lights and siren) and surveilling SA's therein attempted to contain and stop the subjects, while traveling south in the l22nd block of 82nd Avenue, Miami, Florida. As FBI vehicles attempted to pass the subjects, they swerved to the right, braked, and left the pavement. SA MANAUZZI observed the passenger subject preparing to fire on the overtaking vehicles and rammed the Monte Carlo in an effort to incapacitate the occupants. SA HANLON swung his unit abreast of the subject automobile and rammed it in an effort to stop it. Subsequent repeated ramming/counter-ramming by these two vehicles resulted in the loss of control of the FBI vehicle, and its' ultimate collision with a retaining wall on the west side of 82nd Av. {See EXHIBIT A for final location of vehicles at time of shooting.] Subjects attempted to evade pursuing SA's by negotiating a high speed U-turn and proceeded back north on 82nd Avenue. SA Manauzzi, momentarily stopped from the impact of the previous ramming by his vehicle, observed the subject's vehicle returning in his direction and rammed their vehicle a second time, resulting in termination of the vehicle stop effort. [See EXHIBIT A.) . Both of the subjects initiated firing from within their vehicle before SA's could completely exit their respective units. SA Manauzzi was hit by two separate shotgun blasts as he exited _ ne a. or i ignite naa masse 8 Ra * Be OEE Sb a alice ad ae - Fa ae, Teh ay
