Stabbing Suspect Caught at Convenience Store
From Times Wire Reports
A convicted rapist wanted in the near-fatal stabbing of his 12-year-old daughter was arrested in Wallace after wandering into a convenience store following nearly a week on the run.
John R. Tuggle, 37, was dirty, hungry and wearing camouflage when he showed up at the store and the clerk called authorities.
“It is not hunting season,” Sue Boren said. “I thought something was suspicious about him.”
