SMITH COUNTY, Tenn. (WKRN) — The Smith County Sheriff’s Office said a man who allegedly held a rest area at gunpoint and ran from Tennessee Highway Patrol (THP) Sunday morning has been taken into custody.
Back when I was married...2015ish.... I took the family in an RV to Disney World traveling from S.E. Washington. On the way we'd stop in Wal-Marts and Truck Stops to sleep etc. We also used the occasional rest area. The one memory that stands out above the rest is a stop in Tennessee where the rest area was patrolled the entire night by a Tennessee State Trooper. Apparently, they've either stopped the practice or missed this one.
I've been at that rest area many times. It's pretty big, so holding the entire thing is quite implausible. There is a spot in the building you could hold most of the people inside at gunpoint, however.
