Police had previously not disclosed the masked man’s name.

After clearing the vehicle to the highway shoulder to be towed, the two crime fighters posed for a snapshot. The masked man got a ride from a friend to the hospital appearance. Listen to the 911 call from a surprised passing motorist.” Have a better headline for this photo? Post below.
