Episode Forty Seven, Luby’s restaurant massacre

One man had managed to jump out of the way of the initial blast of glass and pickup truck that had come hurtling towards him.

He ran towards the drivers side door of the pick up truck.

He could see the window was open, or smashed open... either way, it didn’t matter. As long as the window was open, he’d be able to asses the state of the driver, and potentially help them out to safety. 

As he approached the window, he let out a slight sigh of relief when he saw an arm move. The driver was alive. 

He then felt fear flood his entire body as he came face to face with the barrel of a semi-automatic gun.
