05:36.200 --> 05:39.520 I mean, were there any sounds, anything like that, that would give you an idea that maybe 05:39.520 --> 05:40.520 where you were? 05:40.520 --> 05:43.660 Well, I figure it must have been someplace out in the valley pretty far out. 05:43.660 --> 05:45.040 No traffic sounds at all. 05:45.040 --> 05:47.200 Just crickets and things like that. 05:47.200 --> 05:50.320 He got me in that car, drove around about an hour, I figure. 05:50.320 --> 05:53.320 And they put me on out at the side of the road, told me to leave the goggles on for 05:53.320 --> 05:54.760 10 minutes, and then they drove off. 05:54.760 --> 05:56.960 Well, how about those two men at the transfer point?

06:06.200 --> 06:08.520 Well, it's their cargo, a whole load of whiskey. 06:08.520 --> 06:11.480 If somebody hijacked it, I figured the company ought to be the first to know. 06:11.480 --> 06:13.200 I'd like to ask you just one more question. 06:13.200 --> 06:14.680 There's no offense intended here. 06:14.680 --> 06:15.680 Yeah?

07:39.320 --> 07:40.320 No, nothing. 07:40.320 --> 07:41.320 We double-checked everything about him. 07:41.320 --> 07:42.320 He's clean. 07:42.320 --> 07:43.320 You didn't get a thing off that abandoned truck? 07:43.320 --> 07:44.880 No prints, no physical evidence. 07:44.880 --> 07:46.520 Seems like they got it down to a science. 07:46.520 --> 07:47.520 Tell that to Thad Brown. 07:47.520 --> 07:49.720 He's getting all the kicks from the warehouse to operators. 07:49.720 --> 07:51.520 30 days and six hijackings. 07:51.520 --> 07:52.520 How about moving faster?

08:07.040 --> 08:08.920 Any indication the gang's working something like that? 08:08.920 --> 08:10.520 No, nothing definite, Skipper. 08:10.520 --> 08:12.360 Jobs seem to be pretty well-cased, though. 08:12.360 --> 08:15.120 We've checked out everybody with a record working for the trucking line. 08:15.120 --> 08:17.320 No reason to think any of them had a hand in it. 08:17.320 --> 08:19.320 Excuse me a minute. 08:19.320 --> 08:20.320 Didion. 08:20.320 --> 08:21.320 Yeah. 08:21.320 --> 08:24.320 Live Oak near Trenton Avenue. 08:24.320 --> 08:26.400 Yeah, I got it right. 08:26.400 --> 08:27.400 Thank you. 08:27.400 --> 08:29.920 We got another truck early this morning. 08:29.920 --> 08:30.920 Where?

08:37.920 --> 08:38.920 A load of toothbrushes. 08:38.920 --> 08:39.920 9.23 a.m. 08:39.920 --> 08:47.480 Ben and I drove to the intersection of Live Oak Drive and Trenton Avenue in the Hollywood 08:47.480 --> 08:52.000 Hills where we located the latest driver to fall victim to the gang of hijackers. 08:52.000 --> 08:54.040 His story was the same as the others. 08:54.040 --> 08:57.760 He'd stopped his truck for a red light at a deserted intersection when a man jumped on 08:57.760 --> 09:00.320 the running board and pointed a gun at his head. 09:00.320 --> 09:04.160 The man with the gun took over the wheel and forced the driver to put on a pair of blacked-out 09:04.160 --> 09:05.960 welder's goggles. 09:05.960 --> 09:09.800 Then the truck was moved to a remote spot where the driver was transferred to a car 09:09.800 --> 09:13.320 and later released in a remote section of the Hollywood Hills. 09:13.320 --> 09:15.840 The hijacked truck was found empty a day later. 09:15.840 --> 09:19.320 And again there was no physical evidence, no fingerprints. 09:19.320 --> 09:21.960 The driver could add little to what we already knew. 09:21.960 --> 09:25.520 The only point that made the case any different from those that had gone before was the cargo 09:25.520 --> 09:26.520 that had been stolen. 09:26.520 --> 09:28.560 A load of toothbrushes. 09:28.560 --> 09:32.000 We began an immediate check of the neighborhood where according to the driver he was first 09:32.000 --> 09:33.000 held up. 09:33.000 --> 09:36.600 It was a fairly remote intersection in the San Fernando Valley. 09:36.600 --> 09:40.140 After four hours of interviewing ranchers and gas station attendants we talked to the 09:40.140 --> 09:44.000 operator of a practice driving range for golfers located just off the highway. 09:44.000 --> 09:45.720 His name was Fred Garrison. 09:45.720 --> 09:48.080 As a matter of fact I did notice something out of the ordinary this morning. 09:48.080 --> 09:49.880 A little before 6 a.m. I think. 09:49.880 --> 09:53.320 Spotted this big semi turning off on that dirt road down the highway there. 09:53.320 --> 09:54.880 Which dirt road is that Mr. Garrison? 09:54.880 --> 09:56.600 Oh right up the highway there. 09:56.600 --> 09:57.600 See it? 09:57.600 --> 09:59.760 It turns off by that clump of trees. 09:59.760 --> 10:02.320 Couldn't figure out why a big truck and trailer would be taking that road. 10:02.320 --> 10:03.320 Doesn't make sense. 10:03.320 --> 10:04.320 How do you mean sir? 10:04.320 --> 10:05.320 Well it's a dead end. 10:05.320 --> 10:07.240 No reason why a driver turn off there by mistake. 10:07.240 --> 10:10.640 There's a big sign right there at the intersection that says Nauta Thru Street. 10:10.640 --> 10:11.640 Right there. 10:11.640 --> 10:12.640 See it? 10:12.640 --> 10:13.640 Plain as day. 10:13.640 --> 10:14.640 I wonder if you could describe the truck for us Mr. Garrison. 10:14.640 --> 10:15.640 It's a pretty good size. 10:15.640 --> 10:16.840 One of those big aluminum jobs. 10:16.840 --> 10:18.400 Black lettering on the side I think. 10:18.400 --> 10:21.720 Yeah it turned off the highway, went down the dirt road a little ways and then it turned 10:21.720 --> 10:24.480 off into that grove of trees and the driver cut the lights. 10:24.480 --> 10:26.600 Did you notice any activity going on at all? 10:26.600 --> 10:28.280 No, no I didn't. 10:28.280 --> 10:30.040 Oh maybe I should have walked over and checked it. 10:30.040 --> 10:32.960 I figured it was just some truck driver pulling up to catch a few winks of sleep. 10:32.960 --> 10:35.000 My boy Dave was with me at the time. 10:35.000 --> 10:37.600 He wanted to check it but I told him to mind his own business. 10:37.600 --> 10:41.280 It says a couple of minutes after the truck pulled in he saw a gray sedan come down the 10:41.280 --> 10:44.160 road and parked next to the truck right in that same clump of trees. 10:44.160 --> 10:46.320 Now didn't all this look a little suspicious to you sir? 10:46.320 --> 10:48.280 Oh I suppose so in a way. 10:48.280 --> 10:50.760 I just don't like the matter where it's not my business that's all. 10:50.760 --> 10:53.320 Well did your boy Dave get a good look at this gray sedan? 10:53.320 --> 10:54.320 Do you know that? 10:54.320 --> 10:57.320 You want to come in the office to sit down? 10:57.320 --> 10:58.320 Sure. 10:58.320 --> 10:59.320 Oh thanks. 10:59.320 --> 11:02.920 Hey sit right there if you like. 11:02.920 --> 11:03.920 Fine thank you. 11:03.920 --> 11:07.000 Let's see now where were we? 11:07.000 --> 11:08.000 About your boy Dave's? 11:08.000 --> 11:09.000 Oh yeah. 11:09.000 --> 11:11.880 You said that he saw a gray sedan pull in next to the truck over in that clump of trees. 11:11.880 --> 11:14.280 Did he mention anything else that he noticed about the car? 11:14.280 --> 11:16.000 Other than the fact that it was a gray sedan? 11:16.000 --> 11:18.560 Oh yeah I think he did say something else about it. 11:18.560 --> 11:21.520 Let's see he wasn't listening too close at the time. 11:21.520 --> 11:23.760 Dave's doing some errands downtown for me right now. 11:23.760 --> 11:25.520 He'll be phoning in pretty soon though. 11:25.520 --> 11:26.960 I can ask him about it then. 11:26.960 --> 11:29.000 He paid a lot more attention to the thing than I did. 11:29.000 --> 11:32.120 Well how long were the truck and trailer and that sedan parked in the grover tree if you 11:32.120 --> 11:33.120 remember that? 11:33.120 --> 11:36.160 Well not too long maybe 15-20 minutes. 11:36.160 --> 11:40.520 The car pulled out first and took off down the highway away from town that way see. 11:40.520 --> 11:42.480 And the truck and trailer left a few minutes after. 11:42.480 --> 11:44.040 Where you figure they were up to? 11:44.040 --> 11:45.040 We've got an idea. 11:45.040 --> 11:48.360 What time was that again sir when you saw the truck turn off the highway onto the dirt 11:48.360 --> 11:49.360 road? 11:49.360 --> 11:50.360 About 6 a.m. 11:50.360 --> 11:51.360 Maybe a few minutes one way or the other. 11:51.360 --> 11:55.120 I wonder if you'd show us the exact spot where you saw that truck parked would you?
