    I do not see the relationship to a lizzard here.

    He could of been going to the building to use the restroom and she asked for money.


    It could be random.

    Any excuse, right? Listen up!!! I am sorry that I can't find the flier that I saw in the Petro in Kingdom City, MO. This "woman of interest" solicited two drivers in the rest area. The artist rendition is from the two drivers' account. If you don't want to listen then you might get more than you ask for with YOUR commercial company.

    Yeah, it's random....

    There are alot of disturbed people in this world. I think truckers should be able to carry guns across state borders as long they are qualified and properly licensed.

    Old news.....driver still dead.

    I see no reason to bring his national origin into play though.

    Plus you can get shot, standing on your porch in most cities.

    Drive by shootings happen all the time.No lot lizzards invloved.But its sad when a person can not even go wee wee with out some thing like this.Could be caused from LACK of Police Patrols or Hidden Big Guns.

    I saw the flyer in Effingham Il.

    I am not making excuses. I am only pointing out that it could be random and the drivers should be on the alert at all times. Not just when they are in the mood.

    Think that is more important.

    I would agree with Roadmedic, We should all be alert at all times this would help keep most of us out of trouble and keep the motoring public safe as well. :yes2557: Yes! we all need to beware of our surroundings at all times not just in truck stops or rest areas. It is not important if she is a lot lizard or some drug dealers girlfriend or maybe she was just a distraction so someone could off the poor guy. Still a man is dead for no reason to be seen.

    Just goes to show anything can happen at any time, rest area or not. More reason to be aware of your surrondings as earlier stated.

    Bottom line here:

    Prosititutes = Bad Idea

    Amazing that not a one of you mentioned that. Boys will be boys, right? I'm so lonely, whatever. Much has been reported on about this and anyone that feels that they have to pay to have intimate relations is taking a risk. I know that there are those that read here that do just that. I was only trying to pass on information and maybe some not so gentle advise. Wasted bandwidth, I guess. Do what you want with whom you wish. All excuses and general shrugging off of the incident are noted.
    Peace.
