HERE’S AN EXAMPLE
FILMING
My name is Morgan Wells. I work for the organization EVIDENCE and can be contacted at
morgan@xxxxx.com or +1 111.222.3333. This video footage was captured on January 25, 2015
beginning at 10:08 am at 800 Wall St., New York, NY, USA.
Other people who are here on scene with me and who may have relevant information about the
likely arrest at the corner of Wall Street and Pearl Street in New York are:
• John Smith, 800 Wall Street, 5th Floor, New York, NY, USA, john@xxxxx.com , +1
111.222.3333; and
• Jane Williams, 800 Wall Street, 5th Floor, New York, NY, USA, jane@xxxxx.com , +1
111.222.3333
The footage is captured from a 5th floor window located on the southeast corner of the building.
I am filming from the window looking down onto the scene on the street at the corner of Wall St.
and Pearl St. This was the only vantage point from which I was able to film.
OPTIONAL: The video captured here documents an alleged use of excessive force by the New
York Police Department against an African American man who appears to be in his early 20s. No
protests were taking place at the time and I do not know what sparked the incident.
I completed filming this incident at 10:30 am.
