James Tully, seen Wednesday, could be near getting a car after a crowdfunding effort raised money following Tully explaining that he is being mistaken for alleged cop killer Eric Frien during walks to and from work.

The effort to crowdfund a car for James Tully, the man who says he's been mistaken many times for alleged cop killer Eric Frein, has passed $22,000 as of this morning.

Dawn DeBiase's initial effort last week was to raise $2,500 for the man who had been walking five miles to work and said he was often stopped by police searching for Frein, who is accused of killing a Pennsylvania State Police corporal on Sept. 12 in Pike County and wounding another trooper.

Commenters of the gopfundme.com page have questioned the amount raised and why it has yet to be distributed.

"$22.ooo+ is more then enough for a reliable vehicle. James has enough to buy two new cars!" commenter Sarah said on the site. "We have all donated to keep him safe on his way to work. Every day you keep this page open waiting for more donations is another day he has to walk to work! Please cash in the donations so James can use the money to get a vehicle!"

DeBiase responded in a comment, " Sarah mayb u didn't read my whole comment, the part about the many details that have to b worked out considering tonite was the first time I met James, as also stated earlier! But thank u for telling me what to do!"

DeBiase also said a neighbor has been driving Tully to work in recent day while details are worked out.
