A new highway sign honoring retired Oklahoma Highway Patrol Lieutenant Charlie Hanger was unveiled Friday, a day before the 30th anniversary of the Oklahoma City Bombing.
90 minutes after the bombing, Lt. Hanger pulled over Timothy McVeigh about 80 miles north of Oklahoma City on I-35 for driving without a license plate. McVeigh had a concealed weapon and was arrested.
It would take a few days for the FBI to find out McVeigh had already been arrested.

The sign honoring Lt. Hanger is placed at Mile Marker 202 on I-35 near Perry.
