At the end, Guy gets shot by police who thinks he’s pulling a gun (its actually just a paper bag with…

…a sandwich in it)

At least I think its a sandwich.  Maybe he pulled a just a paper bag, or maybe it was just a sandwich.  Either way, I think it was about a couple who were being pursued across state by cops, maybe parents, for something or other.  Had a Drugstore Cowboy meets Catch Me if You Can feel to it if I recall… could be wrong, as I’m confident it was made for TV.  I’d like to say 80’s.

The final scene is on a field, at a school or outside a motel.  Pretty confident the guy is sitting on bleachers / bench when a he’s confronted by police.  Pretty sure he had a gun, but he pulls the sandwich/bag instead and is shot.

This has plagued me for decades.

Help me Internet.  You’re my only hope.
