Photograph caption dated March 1, 1962 reads, "The little lady being entertained above by policewoman Florence Dickstein couldn't - or wouldn't - tell officers her name today when she was found wandering down Laurel Canyon boulevard [sic] in Pacoima, but she did assure officers when they attempted to search her for some identification that: "I don't have a gun." On the way to the station to wait for her parents, the little blonde tossed a portable spot light from the police radio car."
