Summary  
The text contains fragmented FBI records and law enforcement documents detailing investigative efforts into Robert F. Kennedy’s assassination and related events. Key details include interviews with individuals connected to the Kennedy campaign, such as Hugh J. McDonald (Assistant Press Secretary), Roy Ringer, Adam Halnsky, and Bill Weisler (Ambassador Hotel staff). The Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles is identified as the scene of the shooting, specifically the Colonial Room. Efforts to locate witnesses, including a "Negro newspaperman" in California and Jerry Gins of *Life* magazine, are noted. Administrative records reference interagency communication between FBI field offices and Washington, D.C., as well as unrelated cases like a 1967 gang-related killing in Los Angeles and an individual named Aziz Mikhal with ties to Egypt.  

Other documents describe interactions at the Ambassador Hotel on May 30, 1968, involving individuals seeking RFK’s schedule, including two men resembling Latin types with dark hair and sideburns. Interviews with witnesses such as Virginia Guy (photographer present at the hotel) and Gabriel Gomez Del Rio (linked to Brigade 2506 and a Tomb of the Unknown Soldier ceremony on April 14, 1968) are referenced. A separate account details an incident at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier where a redheaded woman approached RFK, exhibited signs of intoxication, and made offensive remarks. DEL RIO attempted to shield RFK but was rebuked by the senator. Later, during a visit to JFK’s grave, the same woman was observed with an unidentified man. WILCOVER described the shooting, noting four or five shots fired with pauses between them, and identified the suspect as short, dark-complexioned, wearing a blue denim shirt and tan pants. ROOSEVELT GREER and others subdued the suspect, while medical personnel arrived after approximately fifteen minutes to transport RFK to an ambulance. Paul Schrade was later found unconscious at the scene.
