This is Ron Lanz, the hero that spotted the snipers car.
(Middle aged white guy...average Joe
Born Again Christian)


                                                               

He was interviewed on CNN and didn't want to called a hero. Just a truck driver near retirement.

After he spotted the car he had to block the exit of the rest stop until a friend could call the authorities.

Doesn't want the reward money but would give it to the families of the people shot.

W should give him a metal!

Just heard that hours before he blocked the exit with his truck he was at a prayer meeting with some other christian truckers!! PRAISE
GOD!! GOD ANSWERED OUR PRAYERS!!

Funny he looks just like the guy the profilers were looking for....

A better title would be "Private Citizens capture sniper suspects" Dont you think?

Don't most truckers carry guns?
