"Mr. Antonio Basco's vehicle was stolen and wrecked last night. My husband towed it back to his house this morning. W** is wrong with people!? He just buried his wife yesterday and now this sh**. This is the same vehicle CASA just completely serviced and repaired for him. He told my husband that whoever took it also stole a pressure washing machine from a small trailer he used to use for mobile car washing. Share the shit out of this post to find the ..... who would do this. SHARE!!!"
