   WASHINGTON - A paramedic who responded to the shooting death of former White
House lawyer Vince Foster told a newspaper he saw several "strange" things at the scene
that might not have been consistent with a suicide.

   The New York Post, which interviewed the paramedic and two people who were at the
scene, said the information raised new questions about the death of Foster, a close friend
of President Clinton and first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton.     Federal investigators have
determined his July 20 death was a suicide.     Attorney General Janet Reno, whose
department coordinated the investigation of his death, said, "I have heard absolutely no
information at all that would indicate that it is anything but a suicide."

   The White House had no immediate comment.

   Fairfax County paramedic George Gonzalez told the Post he was surprised to find only
a small amount of blood at the scene. He said Foster's body laid on the ground "as if in a
coffin," which he found "peculiar." He also said Foster's hand was still gripping a gun.

   Kory Ashford, an emergency service technician at the scene, said she did not see any
blood. "I can't even recall an exit wound."

   Park policeman Kevin Fornshill, who said he was the first officer on the scene, also said
he saw no blood, the Post
reported.

   Special counsel Robert Fiske, who is investigating a Clinton land venture that involved
Foster, has included the lawyer's death as part of his scope.

   "I think that all those matters should be discussed first with the independent counsel to
make sure that we don't do anything that would be inappropriate," Reno said.
