POLK COUNTY, Fla. (WFLA) — You may think a truck covered with Polk Sheriff’s Charities symbols would not be a target for a thief, but that wasn’t the case for a local nonprofit.
Bobby Williams is the pastor of the Freedom Church and founder of The Freedom Tour, which provides 1.2 million pounds of free food to people in need every month.

In recent years, Polk Sheriff’s Charities , Sheriff Grady Judd’s non-profit organization, has donated two Freightliner trucks to The Freedom Tour.
Williams dubbed them “Grady One” and “Grady Two.”
Last week, he was contacted at 10:45 p.m. about Grady One being seen driving around Wahneta.
“I GPS both trucks and realize oh my goodness, my truck is stolen. I head out the door fast as I can,” said Williams.
The truck is covered in Polk Sheriff’s Charities emblems.
“Who’s gonna steal a Freedom Tour truck with Polk County Sheriff association on the side, the big symbol, you see it. Who’s gonna do that?” asked Williams.
