in pain while the officers continue to restrain him. stop fighting. there are plenty of questions about how this 73-year-old bates could end up on an operation of this high risk. many wonder if bates close relationship with the sheriff led to this assignment. over the years, robert bates has donated several vehicles including a dodge charger, a crown victoria and a toyota avalon along with video equipment and $2500 donations to the sheriff s re-election campaign. they have taken the fact that this man has been good to the community and has been ben evlnt to the community and a great citizen for our town and made it something bad or sinister. that s the unfortunate thing. his lawyer talked about bates emotions about the shooting that has this sheriff s office defending his use of volunteer deputies. obviously, he is very upset about what happened. he feels badly.
all right. thanks very much. i want to bring in bill karins. how much warning did everybody have down there and what happened? what was the confluence of events that you were seeing and watching as you saw these tornadoes form? the sheriff led to it. you can see the storm formed right over the top of granbury where we saw the fatalities and worst of the damage was. from there the storm tracked toward cleburne. how much lead time did they have? 7:42 p.m. central time is when the tornado warning went off for the granbury area and when the sirens went off and tornado was coming down to the ground. all indications are that it came down over the top of granbury in the city limits there. it s a small town of 8,000 people. a beautiful lake that runs through it. that s when the tornado was reported.
