The two drivers lingered in the darkness in the hours after their Brink’s big rig was burglarized at the Flying J Travel Center. They tried to make sense of the brazen, late-night jewelry heist. “If this was me and I was going to do something like this, I’d try to stay in the shadows as much as possible,” theorized driver James Beaty.
