“Why? Why would someone want to come steal my food trailer?” Luke Patrick, owner of the Pattyscakes Concessions EMS Cafe food truck, said. "I built that trailer from the ground up 2011, completely refurbished it last winter. That was pretty much the start to my food business that trailer.”
The trailer was stored in the parking lot at Cornerstone Grill when it was taken and the owner of the restaurant said she was furious when she saw the video.
“It was parked right alongside the yellow poles," Kim Flowers explained. “It’s really sad. He’s worked very hard to get that food truck and for someone to just snatch it.”
