Dallas Police ID Body Found In Cab Of 18-Wheeler
DALLAS (AP) — Dallas police have identified a North Texas man whose stabbed body was found in a truck cab during a traffic stop.
Police on Thursday identified the victim as 46-year-old James Gregory Lynn of Lancaster.
Jail records show the truck owner, 49-year-old Roderick Jordan of Mineral Springs, Ark., remains in custody on a murder charge. Bond has been set at $500,000 for Jordan, who was arrested Monday when the body was discovered.
Police say Jordan was at the wheel when the vehicle was stopped by an officer who noticed the wheels were smoking. Investigators have not said if Jordan and Lynn knew each other or further details on the killing.
Police originally said investigators were trying to determine if the rig was stolen.
