This absolutely horrified me. I live with in 30 mins of where this occurred. As I'm a local I have always knew it was best to avoid the Indian Reservation after dark, but I have stopped at this and other truck stops on the reservation to eat or use the restroom. Please drivers avoid these stops for more than just a quick stop. There are better options within 20 mins both north and south.

"In the future I'm going to carry a gun to protect myself"
How would the gun have helped him in this scenario? By the time he was awake the attacker was in control of the truck.Sirscrapntruckalot, Bud A., lovesthedrive and 2 others Thank this. -
Great I just started a run that takes me through there weekly. I stayed at that truck stop Sunday night. Guess that won't be happening again.

Sad thing when a hard working man away from his family gets preyed on. Not much you can do in that situation besides fight back.Bud A., mjd4277, Dave_in_AZ and 5 others Thank this. -
When I woke up one day in Jackson TN My spouse was in a ball in front of the pax seat, the invader was climbing across the drivers seat, not caring if the whole world saw it going down at the fuel line etc.
Having to wake up from what I considered paradise to flip into a state that is absolutely not and dead serious to end this, it was a large weight to move in a hurry. The attack got stopped. IT could have been easily a justified murder right there.
When people think they can sleep and something wakes them up, they already lost. All I can say is that I hope you make the decisions you need to make and get this fixed one way or another.
To this day I can remember some places around the USA such as downtown East St Louis in which Sleep is a liability to the extent that you did not sleep at all. IF you wanted to keep your #### in order you stayed up.Bud A., 91B20H8, Oldironfan and 3 others Thank this. -
You need a way to lock the doors together from the inside. A chain that locks to one door then run it across to the other door.
