reddit link
better video also redditt
There was a much much better video on tik tok but I can't find a version I can link or embed.
It was 4 tow trucks ramming each other. The black one took out a white one then a red one ran into the black one then all we see is the list red one running into another red one. .. happened yesterday so I'm sure news and video will come out today.
This isn't new in Chicago. They fight over who is first to a tow job.

It’s sad to see our towing heroes fighting amongst each other just to find work it’s sad to see how we treat our first responders in America
Every time I need to park in the lsu area I’m thankful for riverside towing for deporting illegal parkers

apparently this same type stuff happens in China with construction companies physically fighting each other over jobs.

Seems like they're just creating some business for themselves.

tow truck fighting tow truck?

Is there any thought given to the destruction of vehicles that cost probably $150K to these folks?

One of them should build a Mad Max type tow truck and go around ramming the others.

So now that the red truck busted his radiator, who’s getting the job towing him?

I thought they were bad in Houston. That is nuts.

Not only that I'm sure those companies will lose whatever license they have.

Fighting over a tow from a wreck. Two of them are in repo configurations. Not long distance tow. If I'm the customer I always want a flat bed.

Totally worth it for that $150 hook fee.

On the south side of Chicago
It's the baddest part of town,
And if you go down there,
A'towin, don't you dare,
Unless you tow with Leroy Brown

So all we have to do is get another tow truck and Riverside can be harassed as much as they harass everyone else?

Holy shite I would love to frick with them. I still wonder if I could drop a bowling ball into their office from the bridge.
I seriously hope everyone in or associated with Riverside Towing arse cancer.

The WSJ did an article on tow truck violence in Toronto recently. Apparently the business is run by gangs with gun and drug running involved. I suspect that is also a factor in Chicago. It isn’t just about tows.

Riverside towing in BR are taking notes.

Yep, this has to be about a "territory" type of issue like a drug dealer being upset someone else is selling their territory.
