After that, both of them went to Motel 6 at 2440 Williams Street and talked a while. Then “Joker” ran and jumped into the man’s truck. The man said the other man asked if he could take him home and, after the man refused, “Joker” started the truck. The man said he threw his key fob out of the window but the truck still drove off from the Motel 6 parking lot. The man said it had happened around 15 or so minutes ago but was uncertain and thought maybe an hour. An officer told the man to stay where he was and the officer checked the Motel 6. The officer found the truck parked out in front of the Motel 6, parked normally in a spot and it was not warm as if someone had driven it around 15 minutes earlier. The officer looked over the outside and inside of the vehicle and it didn’t have any damage and appeared as if there was not anything out of the ordinary. Other officers confirmed that the truck has been sitting and not touched in front of the Motel 6 for many hours. The officer had the man meet at Motel 6 and saw him drive his truck away and he didn’t want any further help from the police.
