When multiple groups of police arrived--eventually including FBI, SWAT, ATF, Metro, etc.--he introduced himself as the on-scene commander of the building. After the building was evacuated, he assisted ATF to avoid breaking doors by making himself available to unlock every door in the Library. Jones describes the atmosphere of the students in the library as somber and fearful. He returned the following day to check for damage inside the library, and found minimal damage except "clear" written on some doors. He also discusses racism in the workplace.
