The driver HAD to know there were people in that car.
Not a repo.
If it was a paperwork snafu, why not wait for an empty car?
Was this a kidnapping?
And what was the end game?
SFPD needs to dig for answers, like, yesterday. The driver should be easy to I.D.
IF the company owners were involved, Why?
According to the lady in the car, they are just regular people.
Why do this in broad daylight?
I'm very interested in how this turns out.
