At approximately 2:50 p.m., officer Russo received a dispatched call regarding a theft at a gas station, directly across the street from a shopping plaza where the officer was patrolling. Upon his arrival moments later, Russo observed a crowd of people yelling and pointing down the street. After conducting witness interviews, Russo was told that Hathcock had entered the gas station and left with unpaid merchandise. Gas station attendants followed Hathcock outside and confronted him. Hathcock then turned on his car's ignition and one of the attendants jumped on the hood. Hathcock drove erratically from side to side, dislodging the attendant. A witness who knew Hathcock directed Russo to Hathcock's home, only 4 blocks away.
