I think some wannabe hero cowboy cop is going to gun him down.

A Pennsylvania man says he's been stopped by police more than 20 times as authorities continue to search the area where he lives for accused cop killer Eric Frein.

James Tully's walk to work crosses right through the manhunt area near Canadensis, where police have been searching the woods for Frein for more than five weeks.

Once, he said he was even ambushed at gunpoint by authorities who thought he was the suspect, Tully recalled.

Tully, who works for a metal manufacturing factory, has started wearing his employer ID card around his neck and a reflective vest on his walks.

Tully says overzealous officers have held him face-down in the gravel, knee in his back, while shouting at him to identify himself. He has taken to carrying photo ID everywhere to prove he is not one of America's most wanted men.
