He is currently being held in the Roosevelt County Detention Center.
State police spokesman Ray Wilson said Romanek stole his father’s Chevy Cobalt early Wednesday morning in Albuquerque. He said Romanek then drove to a rest stop along Interstate 40 just west of Santa Rosa and, armed with a shotgun, tried to get people out of their parked vehicles.
“Investigators do not believe he was successful in his attempts,” Wilson said.
According to an arrest warrant affidavit filed in Magistrate Court:
A woman called 911 and told police she was driving down U.S. 84 toward I-40 around 5:40 a.m. when a gray car pulled in front of her and blocked the road. She said as she got closer to the car she saw the driver get out and point a shotgun at her.
