SUMMARY;05-Q4..99rruesday
Per information control sheet #1688, I contacted (W)Vandemark reference information he may have on thesuspects inthis case.
09:30am - I contacted (W)Vandemark at his residence. He stated, on 04-20-99 at approx. 1l:22am, he wastaking a test in Mr. Peterson's science class, when he heard a loud boom. At the time he felt it was probablysome type of mishap in the science lab and continued to work on his test A few minutes later, he overheardteachers in the hallway talking and stating they thought there were gunshots in the school. At approximately thesame time he heard people screaming and running up the stairs, from the lunch room area.
(W)Vandemark stated, he then observed Mr. Sanders, being helped by another teacher, Mr. Johnson, walk pasthis classroom and into the classroom next door. He noticed Sanders head was down and he could see a lot ofblood on the upperright sideof Sanders chest By that timehe was hearing rapid gunshots and someexplosions.He and the other students got down into the comer of the classroom and turned the over tables to hide behind.

- 1mhis locarion, he could see out of one of the two doors in the classroom into the hallway He explained eachy" thosedoorshad a window in it, about four to five feet offthefloor
(W)Vandemark stated, the gunshots and explosions continued for what seemed to be about thirty minutes. Hethen observed two individuals with guns comedown the hall and, he thought, glance into the room. They thenwalked away for a second and he heard anothershot The two individuals returned and starting banging on thedoor to the other science room, where Mr. Sanders was,trying to gel in. He observed both lean down, then sawtheyhadwhat appeared to be a bomb. He described the device all being a white cylinder about one foot longandone and a half inches round. The two taped the device onto the wall, near the door to the Sanders room andwalked back downthe hallway, toward the library At that point he heard more gunshotsand people screaming.(W)Vandemark stated,he watched the device on the wall and saw it was sparking and smoking for a short timeIt thenlet offa largepuffof smoke, aboutthree foot longandstopped all activity
(W)Vandemark estimated the gunshots continued in the area of the library for approximately another hour Heand the other students remained in the classroom, behind the tables for about an additional forty-five minutes,unt:iI the SWAT team enteredand ledthemout
(W)Vandemark explained, that due to the height of the windows in the doors of the classroom, he was not ableto observe a complete description of both gunmen. He described the first one as being tall and skinny with longdark hair, wearing a black shirt, black pants and a black hat, which was on backwards. He also saw that theindividual had a small black"two handled" gun strapped around his neck. He stated he did not personally knowtne individual but hadseen himaround school before. He statedhehad seen the photographs shown by the media
I couldpositively identify the individual as Dylan Klebold.
He described "the other kid" as being about one foot shorterthan Dylan, with dark hair that was spiked on topwith blonde tips. That individual was wearing a white T'-sbirt and had on what appeared to be a dark greenbackpack. He was unable to see what type of pants werewornbut stated he also had a gun strapped around hisneck, that appeared to be similar as the one carried by Dylan. (W)Vandemark stated he is not one hundredpercent surethe individual was Eric Harris. He could not recall seeing Harris around school prior to the incidentand did not think the gunman resembled the photograph shown by the media. He then stated it was possibly theindividual was Harris and hejust lookedolderthanthe photos.
(W)Vandemark stated, as he was watching thegunmen outside his classroom he couldtell theyweretalking backand forth He was unable to hear anything said, due to the fire alarms He also stated he had not noticed anyusual activity at the school that morning or on the priorday
(W)Vandemark drew a diagram of the area where he was hiding and observed the gunman. That diagram isattached to this report

Present during the interview was his mother, Nancy
Daniel was asked if he could provide any additional details
about the the person he saw outside the cafeteria believed to be
involved in the shooting on April 20, 1999. Daniel stated that the
Subj ect may have been wearing black pants. He said he did see the
person's hair and that it was light brown in color. This was - he
reasoned, why he thought this person was Dylan Klebold, as he had
seen photos of both in the papers and on television shortly after
the incident. He said this person was approximately 6' tall and may
or may not have been wearing sunglasses. He stated that the person
had something on which concealed a portion of his face and this
could have been sunglasses or the collar of his coat. As to the

SlJ'PPLEM!NTAL REPORT
COLUMBINE HIGH SCHOOL
Pate: 5/5/99
CONTROL NUMBER: 2584
Pocket Nlllllber:
FBI # 174A-PN-57419
Investigator: Vondenkamp
On 5/4/99 I interviewed 15 year old CBS student Mada Alami at herhorne in Littleton, Co. Nada's father Mohammed Alarni was present forthis interview.
Nade advised me that she was in the cafeteria at CHS for "A" lunch on4/20/99. She arrived at the cafeteria around 11:20am, and had walked
from the administration area where she is a student assistance in theattendance office. She recalled walking alone to the cafeteriathrough the main hallway. She arrived at the cafeteria and sat ather "normal" area below the stairs.
I provided Nads a drawing of the cafeteria, Which depicted all thetables and their location in the cafeteria. I pointed out specifioareas, such as food line, kitchen and west windows of the cafeteriato give Nada a better understanding of the lay-out in this drawing.
Nads looked at the drawing and pointed to table 1.1. as the table sheand several friende were seated at. She stated that her friends attable LL we:!:"e CBS students: Lindsy Dowling, Julie McGinley, EricaMcCluagherty, Kyly Morten, Nick Antonio, Torri Owens, Candice Kuehmanand Drew McCuskey. Nada recalled that she was seated with her back
to the cafeteria, facing the east wall. Nada did not recall seeingany unusually large duffle bags in the cafete:!:"ia. She did not recallseeing anyone ca:!:"rying large duffle bags earlier in the day, or theprevious day. Nada circled and placed an X by table LL where she
sat.
She recalled that shortly after sitting down, around 11:30 she heard
and explosion and saw kids stand up and look out the west windows.
1 JC.o01· 002286
she first thought it was a senior prank. Then Mr Sanders and a
janitor started yelling for everyone to get down. She and her
friends got under the table. She then heard what she believed to be
gunfire outside. The crowd in the cafeteria began running towards
the stairs near her table. She ran up the stairs with a large group
of people, and stated she was in the middle of them. As she was
running up the stairs and turned at the landing, she saw two white
men below wearing dark trenchcoats inside the student entrance near
"rebel corner". She did net see any weapons, but recalled they were
right inside the student entrance doors. She said it was a "very
quick look" as she was running up the stairs and could give no
physical description of these two males because she did not see their
faces. I asked Mada how she knew they were white males, she
responded that "she just did". She did not recall what type of shoes
they were wearing. She then heard several rapid gunshots and
believed the shots were being fired at the kids on the steps by these
men inside.
She continued running up the steps and down the hallway. She cut
through the auditorium and out into the main hallway with several
stUdents. They then ran east towards the administration office exit
doors. Nada celieved there was about 25 kids in this group. They
exited through the administration doors (main exit>. She recalled
the windows in the exit doors were shattered out. The group exited
the cuilding and ran to Clemont park. She continued running and went
to CHS senior Erica Jenning's home on Leawood street. Mada stated
there were about 4-5 students there, whom she did not really know.
She recalled Lindsy Portencastco, Lane (unknown last namel and
Dominic (unknown last name> there also. Mada called her parents from
Erica's home.
Nada was wearing tan pants, blue/White tank top. She left a green
Jansport pack with reading glasses, calculator, black shirt and
school books in it. She had no further information regarding the TCM
or any further information regarding the shootings on 4/20/99.
