My car was parked near a dumpster in an apartment complex. I wanted to help a friend with a ride. She had put her computer and a large back in to my car, and we both went back to her apartment to get something else. It was a late Saturday afternoon. At that time there is no trash pickup and the place seemed empty, so I figured the car was in nobodies way. The tow truck was there in less than 5 minutes, and the driver just barely let me get my purse out of the car before he towed it away. It took me a little over an hour to get the cash they demanded to get my car back out of the impound lot, and to get a friend to take me there. When we got there we checked the items that were in the back of my Pathfinder, and everything looked ok. However, when we came home, there were some items (worth over $300) missing. We wrote a letter to the towing company, even included copies of the sales receipts, but never got an answer.
