One of the actual calls here, and it just seems very
weird. ...
This link has a longer version of the call.

Yoda,
Weird is right about this situation.
Did you get any vibe from 911 caller or guard on ^ 11 1/2 min. recording?
Nice that he stopped to phone, but also appropriately cautious - staying in in his own car, not getting out. (Could h/bn/bogus setup, to lure motorist into stopping to help, then be robbed or carjacked.)
From what I could hear, guard spoke English as second language or just had pronounced accent.
911 caller used terms "delivery truck" and "Mack truck" and spec'ly said "
not an armored truck" but MSM said "tractor trailer." I think of delivery truck as box truck for local deliveries like furniture, appliances. Which kind of truck? Box truck: no sleeping area or lav. TTs often have accommodations.
Overnight stop planned? Miami to Mass. = ~1475 mi., nearly 23 hours per Google data.
Weapons. I wonder if guard-drivers were armed.
The big puzzle to me: Had guard-drivers already
phoned home-base/office, AAA, or wrecker service re mech. problems? If trailer-tractor/long-haul rigs, seems like they'd have
CB radios & cellphones.
Seeks like they could have alerted other truckers - the moment white mini-van pulled up &
guys - at least one (of 3) presumably w guns or other weapons - approached them.
And/or seems like guard-drivers c/h/just called 911 once danger became apparent.
