Sharp said the passenger in the front of the truck, Ryan Payne, stuck his head and hands out of the window. He then said, "They fired at me." Payne exited with his hands up and surrendered, officials said.Both in this CNN interview and her prior statements she relates "Ryan Payne stuck his head and hands out of the window and was shot at".The FBI's statement does not mention any shot fired toward the truck this early in the standoff.
Sharp insisted she heard a shot and said that's why she didn't exit the vehicle immediately. For 3 minutes and 47 seconds, the FBI video shows the white truck idling in the road.
"LaVoy was talking to them. He was not aggressive in any way to them," said Sharp. "He said, 'We're going to talk to the sheriff. You need to leave us alone, back down.'"
The people in the truck were discussing what would happen if Finicum drove off, Sharp told CNN. The FBI said its agents and state troops gave verbal commands for the truck occupants to surrender.
LaVoy Finicum remained determined to try to see the sheriff on his own, said Sharp. "And then he said, 'Hey guys, I'm going to drive.'"
Shawna Cox told her to get down, Sharp said. "'They might shoot when he starts driving,'" she says Cox told her.
Minutes later, the truck encountered another roadblock and went into the snow bank.
The CNN interview jumps from "Hey guys I'm going to drive" to "minutes later the truck encountered another roadblock". (CNN is incorrect here. There was one roadblock.) What happened in between? In the CNN interview Sharp says that Cox told her to get down because the police "might shoot". This differs from her prior statement that the police did shoot when they left.
Which leaves exactly no one who was there - Victoria, Shawna, Ammon, Ryan Payne, the others detained or the LEOs - claiming that the truck was being fired on.
Don't you think someone who was there would be talking about such an important detail?
