It did say it was at 4 a.m. That's even after closing time, they must really get better looking then!!

Possibly, the article, doesn't say why he was taken into custody, nor does it mention, whether or not he is LTC holder. My guess, is that, since most people who patronize ladies of the evening, are usually not, church deacons, he may have had warrants, or he was a felon in possession, of a firearm. Since he had the gun, on his person, and was not on his property, or property he controlled, it may have just been a UCW charge.

I can imagine, the nightmare of a crime scene, starting at a motel and spreading out into the street, to an intersection, where an accident occurred, to the search for the "truck rustler". It is often easier to take everyone in, and sort out the details at the station JMHO

Man meets woman. Man drives woman to hotel. Woman rustles truck while man checks in to get room. Man shoots woman as she drives off with truck.
Man is taken into custody.

Note to female truck thieves: don't rustle trucks!!
