I-40 eastbound is shut down. Trucker and cop shot on highway!! | |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79338671 United States 10/17/2020 06:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I am a trucker and I was taking a load to Albuquerque and there's a huge traffic jam on I-40 going east about 50 miles west of Albuquerque. On the CB they said a trucker was shot and I also heard I can't confirm that a cop was shot on the freeway. So now the highway is an active murder scene and they have shut it down while they do their investigation. Where it is that it won't be open many many hours. Does anybody have any info on this? I will post more info as it comes in but it's not really clear right now. Currently there is at least 20 miles of traffic probably lots more than that Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70971643 May God bless and keep you You guys are like nurses, EMT, etc in keeping the USA going during this fake situation... |

There's a scene where some characters are hiding behind it. It's actually the same movie prop trailer used in the movie! "Peace in our time?

Then people from that town chased him down and shot him 4 times, to death. The section between ex 114 and 117 is shut down as a crime scene. all kinds of cops, tribal police, state troopers and FBI involved! They are diverting traffic around on route 66 between those exits. I only had 4 hours left on my 70 hours, and only have 6 coming back to me tomorrow, so I'm ok Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70978896 I believe it. I’m from that area and that’s how we roll. |

I detoured to a road that paralleled 40 for about 30 miles It went through an Indian reservation, washboard pavement, angry/murderous looks, for the better part of an hour. My detour put me about 1 mile beyond the blockage.It lasted 10 hours i found out later Route 66? . INFJ; We are the protectors. |

Driving long haul I cant imagine not wanting to know what may lie ahead. Do they make truck CB radios any longer? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 78269817 Reread OP's initial post in this thread.

He would sing Hey La dee, hey la dee, hey la dee dah..... the audience would yell names and he would improvise raunchy lyrics.

I know a girl her name is Margie her cu__ is so big she can fck a large tree.” We would get drunk and fall about the floor laughing hysterically. Smoke me a kipper, I’ll be back for breakfast.
