The backstory:

Bartonville police confirmed that Fry is the same person who crashed a truck into the FOX 4 building in Downtown Dallas in 2018.

He got out of the truck, ranting and throwing sheets of paper onto the sidewalk. Fry also left behind a suspicious bright orange duffel bag that prompted police to set up a perimeter and bring in the bomb squad.
