Thieves burglarize St. Louis food trucks

October 25, 2017

Thieves have been targeting food trucks in south St. Louis, as at least two trucks were burglarized Saturday at a food truck facility at Rogers Place and Utah Street, according to fox2now.com. Both trucks, FarmTruk and Locoz Tacoz, have set up GoFundMe pages to raise money to recover their lost equipment.

Thieves stole a generator and some coolers from FarmTruk. The truck has had to cancel events, according to owner Samantha Mitchell.

Thieves stole two propane tanks and a commercial burner that was stored outside of Locoz Tacoz, according to owner Tyler Garcia. Without the burner, the truck has to prepare 100 pounds of meat a day in smaller pots, which is far more time consuming.
