Superior police remain at a loss to explain why a man shot by police on Friday acted as he did before the fatal shooting.
Authorities weren’t searching for the car Luke Daniel Anderson, 34, of Duluth was driving Friday afternoon, it wasn’t stolen, according to Superior Police Chief Charles LaGesse.
So why did Anderson allegedly steal a woman’s keys while brandishing a handgun and try to take her car?
“We don’t know the answer,” LaGesse said. He did say Monday that Anderson’s car was running in the parking lot while the Duluth man took the woman’s keys. LaGesse said Anderson spent a very short amount of time in the woman’s vehicle. He could only speculate Anderson couldn’t find the right key. When he was unable to start her vehicle, Anderson ran back to his car and fled the scene.
The parking lot incident sparked a police pursuit that ended with a gunfight in the field behind Downtown Mobile Home Park, 409 N. 12th St. Anderson died at the scene.
Crime Scene Report: Traffic on South Ocean Boulevard rerouted after car bursts ...
22.05.12
A Boynton Beach man was driving southbound on South Ocean Boulevard when his
car burst into flames.
The incident, which occurred in the early evening hours of Feb. 13, caused
traffic to be rerouted as the burning car, a 2000 Audi, was partially
blocking the road.
Palm Beach police officers, who responded to the scene in the 1600 block of
South Ocean, said the driver was first alerted to a problem when he smelled
burning plastic coming from his dashboard. “He saw lights coming from inside
the dash and he ripped the dash compartment off to get a better look,” an
investigating officer said.
“He then saw small flames coming from behind the dash, which he was able to
extinguish by patting with his hands. [But] the area behind the dashboard
reignited and the fire spread rapidly through the vehicle.
“He was able to remove his briefcase and a set of golf clubs before the fire
completely engulfed the vehicle.”
The first police officer arrived at 6:51 p.m. and saw the car in flames.

go to martin lewis money saving expert .com site he gives you the best impartial advice , if you want best value for money the best is insurance where you pay for your breakdown at the time and claim the money back from the company they pay up within two weeks so if you paid by credit card that way u will get paid b4 the bills arrive .Thats how i do it and it works out about 45 pound i think for me and spouse any car

Your car insurance should have the option of roadside service coverage and this is by far the most cost effective way to obtain this coverage. If that is not an option, a membership in AAA provides excellent roadside service and towing coverage and there is no requirement to purchase your car insurance from them to obtain the membership and roadside coverage.

green flag
or
autonational
both really good and cheap

I'd go for the AA if you're in the UK - very good value & plenty of patrols.
J G | Nov 03, 2008
Depends how long you want to wait around. The AA are about the quickest, and the best in my view. Green Flag can be a disaster. A friend had to wait a week for recovery because the call out garage couldn't be ars*d.
BARRY B | Nov 03, 2008
I am with the AA, my membership is £39 per year and the membership is for the car not the owner, therefore whoever is driving the car is covered for breakdown.

Cost of being rescued if your car breaks down with no membership in UK?
Sep 17, 2009 by Ross | Posted in Other - Cars & Transportation
I'm trying to work out if its worth it. So if someone knows the cost of being rescued if your car breaks down with no membership that would be useful. Or the cheapest option for cover. (In UK)
It's down to cost, convenience, who you know & where you break down.
If you break down on a motorway away from home, you'll invariably have to use a breakdown service to get your car safely off the carriageway as soon as possible, regardless of cost. You won't get any change out of £100, you'll have to pay more on top for storage, repair or transport to your area for a local garage to sort it.
Cars are pretty reliable these days - you don't see many broken down on the motorway, and if it's a young car (say up to six or eight years old) and well looked after, you probably won't have a problem.
However, in my opinion, for peace of mind & relatively little cost (around £40-£60 per year, or free with some insurers), it's worth getting breakdown cover if you're running a less reliable car or you're completely clueless in the event of a breakdown.
J G | Sep 17, 2009
That will depend on where you break down. Most garages will have a call out fee which will vary on how far they have to travel to get you.
Matt | Sep 17, 2009
This would depend on where you break down, if it is on a motorway then the cost could be in the hundreds of pounds, depending on the type of breakdown
If you run out of petrol on a motorway it will cost you at least £70.00 + the cost of the petrol.
Joining a motoring club is not too expensive, and it gives you peace of mind.
If you do break down they will only charge you for the replacement parts if needed, or the cost of the fuel they put in you car., they will even tow you home in some instances.

A years worth of recovery membership will cost you less than one breakdown call-out.

Does anyone have an RAC receipt for being helped?
Dec 08, 2008 by Frozen Flame (Neil E) | Posted in Insurance & Registration
My car broke down the other day and i have rac rescue cover, but it meant i couldnt go to work that day and now they want proof that I did break down. Does anyone have a receipt or something from the RaC that they can photocopy and give to me so i can just photoshop it. I rang the rac but they said there was nothing they could send me and i lost the original documentation because work only asked for it 4 weeks down the line.
Just tell your employer you lost the original document (if you really ever had it to begin with). That will cause you less grief than your convoluted attempt to lie to them now. And no, I won't help in your deception.
oklatom | Dec 08, 2008
the other day and 4 weeks ago is 2 way different time frames. Rac should be able to give you something proving that they provided a service to you.

Roadside cover in the UK?
Dec 20, 2008 by Henrys Mummy | Posted in Other - Cars & Transportation
Has anyone heard of Rescue my car.com???
I found them through Money Supermarket and are offering a good deal but i've never heard of them!
Anyone else used them?
Was your experience good or bad?
Thanks
I reckon you get what you pay for with road rescue. If it's cheap, it will be poor. I am in the AA and I have always have prompt and excellent attention. They've even added complimentary Homestart to my basic cover. With the AA you are covered for the car you are in, even if you are a passenger! Job to beat that.

Has the Micra recall killed my car?!?
Jun 11, 2007 by riggers1980 | Posted in Nissan
Last week when my car was being MOTd, the garage also carried out 3 recalls, one of which involved the ignition - although I'm not entirely sure what was done. Over the weekend, my car completely died - the engine cut out whilst I was driving, and now it won't start - it won't even turn. The RAC chap who rescued me thinks that it might be a problem with the starter motor, which could have been effected by the recall.
My car is an '04 1.5 diesel Nissan Micra, which, until this weekend, has been entirely problem free. Is it likely that somehow the recall was carried out incorrectly, or with an iffy part, or is it more likely an unfortunate coincidence - I'm worried the garage might try and cover it up, as I don't know much about cars. :(
It is entirely possible that the work the garage did has caused your problem, however proving it is a different matter. Give your local trading standards department a call and explain to them what has happened - they will be able to explain to you what your rights are and how to resolve this. They may even get in touch with the garage on your behalf if you experience problems.
