Armored car theft story takes weird turn

My head is spinning.

A man who at the start of the day was considered missing and presumed to be in possible danger now has been charged with the theft of $200,000 from an armored vehicle that police found abandoned in Amarillo.

The suspect now is Trent Michael Cook, 24. He’d been driving the armored vehicle. He’s been missing for a couple of days. “Good Morning America” did a story this morning, describing Cook merely as missing. Police said he might be in some danger.

Now he’s been charged with theft. Police had reported initially that Cook was unarmed; now they say he is armed and is considered to be potentially dangerous.

What in the world changed?

Police aren’t likely to explain yet why they changed Cook’s statusĀ from “missing” to “suspect.” They’ll have to get him in custody before they explain to the public how this story has taken such a dramatic turn.

It’s all quite weird. I’ll be waiting and watching to see how this story unfolds.
