I was thinking along the route west to Albuquerque, and into Albuquerque. They could have stopped for some reason. It's really surprising how many businesses have video nowadays...If you look closely at the pic up thread, of the truck, it appears to be dumped in a shopping center...Do I have that right?
The article mentions there were not any nearby video cameras to assist.
I was reading this article here and it did not mention that. :http://www.newson6.com/Global/story.asp?S=12941053
Please note, some times they provide bad info or disinformation in the news so the suspects don't jackrabbit....If the bad guys read they have good video, they will likely take off from the area.
Santa Rosa is on I-40, so they could have been hitchhiking. The dump spot is a bit off of I-25.
You mean the suspect was possibly hitchhiking?
If so, I would bet against this couple picking up hitchhikers, due to the fact that most with CCWs are not trusting people to begin with.
Thanks for the information.
Going back to the picture of the pickup. I haven’t lived in ABQ for quite some time, but I looked at the satellite image and google guy of the Edith-Osuna area last night, and it looks much like I remembered it from being there. Pretty barren. There aren’t any shopping centers around that intersection that are that developed.
Oh, and I-40 into ABQ is also very barren. Given it is only a 2 hour drive, they wouldn’t really need to stop. There is only a few truck stops.
Read another article that said the pickup/trailer was seen on the security camera of the restaurant near where the burned trailer was found.
Maybe they came across someone broken down. Just don’t know enough yet. They were comfortable enough to let down their guard.
New article gives a specific address: 6601 Fourth Street. This is several blocks down from the Edith/Osuna area. Still pretty barren in and around the way there.
