    Sometime in the wee hours of the morning, someone broke into the tow compound, in Visalia, CA, and stole alot of tools, and stole a tow truck!!

    The truck is a 1988 (With 1994 sheet metal), Ford Super Duty. Sapphire Blue, with a flat-deck, car carrier bed. It says Richard's Towing on the side in Gold tone letters..

    If you see this vehicle, do NOT approach whoever is driving it! Call police and tell them this vehicle is stolen and give them the location!!

    We're most likely going to find it burned in an orange grove, but it doesn't hurt, and may help, to have as many eyes out there looking as possible.

    Unfortunately, I do not have a picture.

    That was quick. Did they just use it to transport the other stuff they stole?

    Yep. That's all they used it for. They took thousands of dollars in equipment, and once they got it out ditched the tow truck. And of course, took all the tools from the tow truck too.

    Thanks to the new economy this will soon be common. Now we will have not just thieves but desperate thieves.
