The Texas Gas Station Biker Incident Began On An Evening That Felt Too Calm To Ever Become Memorable. The Sky Above Waco County Stretched Wide And Gold, The Air Still Warm From A Long Texas Day, And The Small Roadside Gas Station Sat Quietly Between Stretches Of Highway Where Travelers Stopped Only Long Enough To Refuel And Disappear Again. Nothing About That Evening Hinted At Urgency. Nothing Suggested Fear. People Moved Slowly, Comfortably, Wrapped In Routine.
