Timely Intervention: Delivery Driver and Hotel Manager Rescue Hostage in Texas

A man held hostage in a Texas hotel room was saved this week, thanks to the quick thinking of a delivery driver and a vigilant hotel manager.

According to the Sweetwater Police Department, officers received a call regarding a suspicious delivery made for a man named Neil Cooper, 42, at the Sweetwater Inn shortly before noon on Monday.

Cooper had placed an order for garbage bags, zip ties, bleach, and a hatchet through a delivery app, raising concerns from the delivery driver.

This alarming combination of items prompted the driver to notify the hotel manager, who then contacted the authorities.

The Sweetwater Inn, where the incident took place, became the focal point of a police response. Google

Upon their arrival, the police learned that Cooper had allegedly barricaded himself inside the hotel room and claimed to be armed with a gun.
