Ryan Neal Amos emerged from his Belton, Texas residence armed with a handgun and fired at a tow truck driver attempting to repossess a vehicle on February 7, striking the truck as the driver fled, according to the Bell County Sheriff's Office. Amos then barricaded inside his home, prompting a SWAT response with crisis negotiators and a Temple Police Department surveillance drone before surrendering; he was charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon on $45,000 bond.
Operator takeaway
No one was physically injured because the driver fled immediately — that is the correct response to a firearm threat during a repo, and your training should reinforce it.
