PAULA ZAHN, CNN ANCHOR: What we're going to do is go back to Ari Dotson (ph), who was on his way to work when he saw this all come down.
Ari (ph), are you still with us?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Yes, I'm here.

ZAHN: What do you see?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I've got a call, and I walked a little closer to the van. It's not an Astrovan; it is a Plymouth Voyager van with temporary license plates on it.

ZAHN: And what state are the license plates from?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: From what I can tell, because I'm in the industry -- I work at the Car Guys here on Broad Street in Richmond -- they look like Virginia temporary tags.

ZAHN: And can you see any identifying marks on this van? Is there a ladder on top?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE: There is no ladder on top. And from what I can tell it has no state inspection or county sticker. So it's driving illegally.

ZAHN: Wow!
