Crime Headlining Crime Megathread Vol. 2

[therealdope]

this goes back many years ago but i lived in a city where there was an infamous tow truck company that did all kinds of low-life shit.

the owner was arrested (I dont' remember for what) he didn't even make it one night without getting the shit kicked out of him in the city jail. No one shed a tear.

Rest in piss.

I grew up in Toronto and the absolute scummiest guy from my high school went straight to a tow truck driving job.

From what I remember CAA guys were pretty cool.

I thought you were from the 'Shwa. If so, I can absolutely see that. Was a great party town back in the day, but not exactly wholesome.

Nope. My wife grew up in the 'shwa. That's my only connection to that hell hole.

Oh and inb4, "But the portion size at Teddy's!!!".

Tow Truck drivers are sketchy dudes in this city who you don’t want to fuck with. People get hurt over “Turf” all the time. Best not be towing in someone else’s hood.

A lot of the towing guys seem to hang out with motorcycle clubs...

Lol as somebody who lives 30 minutes our of Toronto these guys are legit crazy. They just sit on the highways, they have the police scanners, theyll show up at accidents before EMS even can. Not surpised about this.

 

[Koro_11]

Most of the tow truck drivers in the GTA are middle eastern guys, doesn’t make sense since we all know Islam is a religion of peace.

 

[Jim Braddock]

Name of driver checks out. Toronto is such a shithole.

 

[whaleshark]

I know like 20 years ago, a lot of the tow truck companies were working with or active members of HellsAngels and other biker gangs, organized crime

Less than in years gone by. The industry is a lot more "multi-cultural" than it used to be. Still quite a few bikers and guidos, but they don't have a stranglehold on the industry any longer.

One of my favorite memories is seeing a tow truck driver chain up and BMW. The driver came out yelling and cursing and the dude just lit a cigarette and said "I fucking love my job", got in the truck, and hauled the BMW away.

There was a guy who looked like a bikey that used to deposit about $50k cash every week at my bank. Apparently owned a tow truck company.

Didn't seem like it would be a cash business to me.

Suspect as all hell but Austrac was notified so nothing really more to do.


Anyone else disappointed to not find out anything about the supposedly shady world of Toe Trucks???

 

[DivineMind]

Tow Truck guys are the lowest of the low, I hope they kill each other off in every city.

 

[Literally Bricked]

York Region, Scarborough, fuck Bloomberg was right and it’s not even New York.

Canada has guns?

 

[rearnakedchoke]

There used to be a camel tow truck company in the toronto. Haven’t seen their trucks around lately.

 

[rearnakedchoke]

Canada has guns?

Yes. It is not a right, but a privilege though.

 

[Badger67]

They have been slashing tires and setting fire to other trucks all winter so far. Seems like the natural progression of crime here.

Tow truck drivers are the worst.
When I was in college at FSU, I got towed once. I had a truck so we went to the game and I had about 8 dudes riding pit bull in the bed of my truck. Parked at my usual spot, but due to no one knows how to parallel park, in order to use my spot, I was half in a tow zone half not. So got towed(during game day the tow trucks roam like a wolf pack), then the tow guy was closed on Sunday because per him its the "Lord's Day" but the Lord did not prevent him from charging me an extra storage day, which in theory should violate The Lord's Day policy. So pull up in the rural area of Tally, and dude has two kids in diapers and boots only(no shirt, nothing but boots and diapers) running around his front yard, which made me laugh. Since the Lord made him close and charge me an extra storage day. I went by the bank and got coins to get my car back. The dumb fuck would not count nor take my change. Told me I needed to get cash. I told him the Lord and the government said coin is legal tender and he had to take it. Eventually a sheriff had to be called so he would take my change and give me my truck back. He was pissed he had to count a 125 bucks(it was a long time ago so would be way more now) in loose change and was getting even more pissed he kept fucking up the count.
Clifs
I hope the tow truck drivers wipe each other out.
