There are no othernonemergency vehicles in the parking lot. (You are told that the reporting officers had the othervehicles removed from the parking lot.)Walking toward the stairwell, there is a series of red stains in the shape of shoeimpressions on the sidewalk. These shoe impressions appear to contain class characteristics, andthey may be composed of possible blood. There are four shoe prints present, all seem to be fromthe right foot and appear to have been made from the same shoe. The impressions lead from theelevator entry and disappear in to the grass. In the bushes just to the right of the sidewalk nearthe base of the exterior wall of the apartment complex is a large knife.Climbing the stairwell to the third floor, do not notice any further impressions. Uponarrival on the third-floor landing, there are two shoeprint impressions (similar to those on theground floor sidewalk) that lead toward the elevator entry on the third-floor landing. There is ared (possible bloody) fingerprint impression on the elevator call button. Examining the interior ofthe elevator, a red shoeprint is on the floor and a red smear is on the elevator ground floor button.A uniformed patrol officer stands guard on the third-floor landing.
