DALLAS — A North Texas man managed to track down his wife’s stolen car, and in the process helped lead police to an apparent chop shop.
While he did not want to share his name, he was willing to share his story.
“My wife’s Super Sport was stolen Tuesday night from DeSoto, and thank God we had a tracker.”
He says they followed the car as it moved from location to location before making its way to a home on Mail Avenue, a dead-end street between Love Field and Parkland Hospital.
“Fortunately, we were able to finally put eyes on it and contact DPD,” he said. “We verified it, gave them the information, and they confirmed it with the tracker.”
He watched for hours as tow trucks brought out several high-performance cars, auto parts, engines, even jet skis. Finally, near the end of the afternoon, he saw his wife’s yellow Dodge Charger roll down the street.
“I just thank God that we were able to locate the vehicle and find it in one piece,” he said, adding, “Because as you saw, there were so many vehicles that were not in one piece.”
