Near midnight, John pulls his Hummer into the parking lot of Smoky Mtn. Knife Works and parks between the building and SR 66/Winfield Dunn Pkwy. John sits in the vehicle for a few moments, then gets out without a coat and walks north through the parking lot towards the river side of the building. When he left his vehicle, John left the keys and his cell phone in the cupholder of the unsecured Hummer

Wow. While driver's license photos are stereotypically nothing to gloat about, I've never seen one looking so sad. RIP John.
