James Tully says he been stopped so many times by law enforcement on his way to work that he 's stopped counting . Apparently , he resembles fugitive Eric Frein , who is accused of fatally shooting a Pennsylvania state trooper and injuring another trooper in a September shootout . The search for Frein has jolted the Canadensis area of Pennsylvania 's Pocono Mountains , leading to school closures , roadblocks and multiple police interactions for Tully , who walks 5 miles to work and back each day because he does not own a car . `` Because I 'm walking and I 'm carrying a book bag , and for some reason people seem to think I 'm the one they 're looking for , '' Tully told CNN affiliate WNEP . `` I 've lost count after 20 in total . The most on one round-trip stretch was about seven times . '' He even started wearing his work ID around his neck for easy identification . One concerned citizen is looking to take the target off Tully 's back . Dawn DeBiase of East Stroudsburg , Pennsylvania , started an online fundraiser to help the father of two purchase a car . The campaign has raised more than $ 22,000 in just five days . DeBiase said she was touched by Tully 's plight . `` He 's a good guy . He 's working to support his children . He 's not in the street boo-hooing because he does n't have a car ; he 's walking to work every day . '' Due to the overwhelming response , DeBiase said , she 's closing the fundraiser this week at Tully 's request . `` He does n't want to be greedy about it , because what 's there now will help him , '' DeBiase said . `` He 's ready to take it from here . '' In the meantime , others in the community have stepped up to give him rides to work . `` He absolutely appreciates everything . He 's totally overwhelmed by everything , '' she said . `` He 's a very humble , hardworking guy . ''
