Seems witness comments should be the headline of this story!

One of the many reasons FR frowns on people altering the headlines is that many people have very faulty reading comprehension skills.

The “hispanic man” and the “middle-eastern man” are the same guy.

Young said as he backed his truck out of his parking spot, a white Astro van with two men inside tried to turn into his lane. He said the driver appeared very agitated to find his way blocked and instead drove by a neighboring Chinese restaurant and out of sight.

Young described the driver as a short man of slight build who appeared to be Mideastern. He said, "I got a good look at the guy."

The point of changing the title was the content warranted it. That was the point of my post.

Thanks for the reading comprehension tip. I think the witness does say their are "two men" and that the "driver" appeared middle-eastern. Shoot me! I am sure the second guy was Bill-Bob Thorton. The actual headline of the main link from the Fox Page is, "Police Searching for Van."

As a former award-winning journalist, who also is in the line of fire here in Arlington, my point was that the news in this story is the physical description of at least on e of the suspects by a named fact witness, not that the Police are looking for a Van.
