    FB_IMG_1533079985679.jpg FB_IMG_1533079985679.jpg Screenshot_20180731-164906.jpg my truck was just stolen around 230 pm on Nogales and La Puente rd across the street from Nogales high school. Please contact me at (562) 623-7730

    It's is an 05 silver double cab short bed with black mickey thompson wheels, black headlights, and black lower valence. It is at regular height with the tires sticking out a little bit. It's the off road model so it's pretty standard. Share with anybody thag you know! Thank you !

    Wes, this thread was tough to read, I'm sorry about your stolen Tacoma and especially losing your dog Leo. A few tips I could offer are:

    1.) Get the word (and pictures) out about your car everywhere you can — car forums, local neighborhood websites, Craigslist, everywhere.

    2.) Try Taxi driver, pizza or other food delivery companies, postal carriers — anyone whose job involves lots of driving around. The more eyes around, the more chances of your car being seen. Even offering a reward of $50 for the person finding it and $50 for the dispatcher too.

    3.) Check every building around your area for cameras. Most businesses will have them — gas stations, grocery stores, small shops, pretty much anything. The key here is you should act quickly on this one, because many security camera systems re-record their footage on short cycles— sometimes daily. So, find the cameras and ask for the footage to be saved, if possible, as soon as you can after you find your car stolen.What you find in the footage may or may not help recover the car, but any information helps.

    Good luck,
    Mark

    If my dog was ever kidnapped I'd go full John Wick.

    Wouldn't have too many feelings about the truck though, I'd just hope they burnt it out so it couldn't get "repaired." Crack heads make vehicles gross.

    This really saddens me, especially since I have a dog. I can’t even imagine bro, whoever said John Wick is right. I hope they catch those low life’s and you are able to get your dog back, the truck would be an added bonus.

    Let’s all hope that Leo f@cked them up and they had no choice but to park the truck and leave it somewhere where the cops will find it. Fingers crossed.
