Question

Help answer this question below.

I have seen and read lots of info about the JFK shooting in Dallas. But what I have never heard anyone attempt to answer is, how was it that a bunch of police stormed the movie theater where Oswald was watching a movie? How did they know he was in there?

    A shoe clerk name John Calvin Brewer was listening to the radio coverage of Kennedy's assassination. He spotted Oswald acting suspiciously in the lobby of the shoe store.

    A police officer drove by and Oswald left and headed in the direction of the movie theatre. Brewer followed Oswald to the movie theater and witnessed him enter. He then asked the ticket girl if she had sold him a ticket. She said she didn't remember, but she didn't think so, she was listening to the radio.

    He then went inside and talked with the concessions worker who hadn't noticed Oswald either. Brewer and the worker then checked all exit doors to see if they had been opened. As far as they could tell, they hadn't.

    Brewer then went back out to the ticket girl and had her call the police.

    I think they got a tip. I'm not entirely sure about that or who it was from; but, I seem to remember that that is how they knew where he was.
