WRONG WAY TRUCK DRIVER REMOVED AT GUN POINT - 🚨RAJ TRANSPORT 🚨
WEST MEMPHIS, Ark. — Raleigh May Cupples was driving across the I-55 bridge Tuesday when the vehicle in front of her changed lanes – and she saw a semi-truck driving in her direction.
“The big truck gets over in the right lane, and that’s when I see that truck,” Raleigh said. “My first thought was, is this a truck hooked up to another truck pulling it?”
Video taken shortly before shows the semi-truck was actually driving down the wrong lane of traffic.
Arkansas State Police arrived on the scene. By this point, Raleigh said they were on the Tennessee side of the bridge. The trooper jumped the median with his weapon drawn, she said. She began recording video at this point. The trooper holstered his weapon, jumped down from the barrier, and went to the driver’s side of the cab.
From there, the officer opened the door and attempted to get the driver to exit the vehicle. Raleigh said the man refused. The trooper tried to pull the man out of the vehicle, but it appears in the video that the man resisted. A second trooper arrives with a rifle, and a third officer also shows up with a gun drawn. With multiple officers working together, they pull the man out of the vehicle and take him to the ground. |
