As or just after this picture was taken, an odd thing happened. A teenage boy broke from the crowd and ran toward Kennedy's car shouting something like, "Wait, I have something to tell you." A Secret Service agent stepped off his car and knocked the boy to the ground fearing the teenager intended harm. Mr. Heikes, along with WBAP-TV photographer Dan Owen, ran to see what had happened but the boy had disappeared into the crowd. - Gary Mack, Curator
