Allan, the oldest child, remembers when the crushing news arrived. He was home that day from eighth grade, faking a stomachache to avoid an exam, he says. Listening to KLIF radio, he heard the announcer report the shooting of a police officer named J.D. Tippit.
“I thought, there aren’t many people with that name. So I went and got mother,” Allan said. “She listened for a minute and freaked out and called the substation. I wasn’t sure until some officers came knocking on the door.”
