    Theives are becoming bolder. Like that load of copper that was stolen in Ft
    Worth two weeksago, and led to a high speed chase and crash. If you read the comments after the article, there are more cases of thievery going on out there. Keep your guard up!
    Condolences to the family.

    Let me guess. The truck wasnt hauling a load of cars that sell for 15k each. It is only speculative, yet I would not be surprised if there were luxury cars on that transport.

    Condolences to the family. I hope it and the load were insured.
