Contact the Aptos/Freedom CHP if you had a Toyota stolen or parts stolen around Central Cali. They busted a Toyota theft ring, and chop shop in the mountains of Santa Cruz. Also if you know someone who bought a Toyota truck/or runner in this area, it may have stolen parts, especially if its built.

Cool, did you post this up on Marlin? There were a bunch of rigs stolen in SC a couple months ago.

Any word on the individuals actually involved and whether or not they were in cahoots with one of the two local shops around there, (Toy Connection or Comerson's)? It would suck if those people were involved somehow, but then again at least now they'll be off of the streets and behind bars.

Also any link to an article or how you found out for sure about this (family member told you)? Sentinel or S.J. Merc?
