Next Time Catch A Bus!

Large crowds need parking. Unfortunately, they choose to park in private lots and got their vehicles towed.

Will former president Donald J. Trump pay for his supporters towing fees? 

After all, he is rich and his supporters will do anything for him.

Apparently, MAGA supporters think it's perfectly fine for them to park in private lots.

Dunkin, the donut and coffee restaurant is a franchise. The owners of the Charlotte, North Carolina location saw there was no inside traffic and they parked in spots that should be reserved for any customers entering or dining inside Dunkin.

Looks like they hopped on the phone and called the towing company to have vehicles towed from the property.

Now supporters are upset they have to pay the $500 fee to get their vehicles out.

They likely blaming Vice President Kamala Harris, Charlotte-Mecklenburg mayor Vi Lyles and the left for their woes.

Now I have discussed predatory towing companies in past posts. This is an act where towing companies have spotters survey contracted properties for vehicles that go past the acclaimed time. They contact the tow truck operator and within minutes the vehicle is towed and the owner returns to seeing it gone. They contact the company and the towing company forces a hefty fee to release the vehicle. If the vehicle is not released, the towing company would confiscate properties and up staying fees.

 It is a shady act that should be looked at by the U.S. Justice Department, Department of Transportation and state agencies.

The Charlotte rally was the former president's first public campaign event since President Joe Biden's exit from the 2024 race and since the assassination attempt on Trump.

The Secret Service has reportedly recommended no more outdoor rallies for the former president after the assassination attempt.

It's time for Dunkin.

Once the rally ended, drivers were stunned to find their vehicles had been towed.

Drivers told WBTV the manager of the Dunkin’ allowed them to leave their cars in the lot during the rally. However, when asked for comment, they said several people were told they could not park there and that signs on the property indicate no parking for non-customers.

Tow trucks reportedly showed up and began removing vehicles from the parking lot during the rally.

"The managers inside promised that they could park here," Zander DeSoto, a Trump rally attendee, told WBTV. "Some of the people here even gave money to the people inside."

To make matters worse, people whose vehicles were towed from the Dunkin' parking lot had to pay hundreds of dollars to a towing company to get their cars back. 

"Something very fishy [is] going on here because I’ve never seen anything like this happen before," one attendee told WBTV.

Another man said when he confronted the Dunkin’ manager, the shop’s employees locked the doors and refused to exit.

"The whole parking lot is gone … everybody," he explained. "They locked the doors. They won’t answer our calls, and they won’t even answer at the window."

One family told WBTV they traveled over two hours to attend the rally. And when they walked back to their car afterward, it was gone. 


Gotcha Towing & Recovery, the company tasked with towing vehicles from the parking lot, told WBTV there was a sign warning that illegally parked cars would be removed. 

The towing company added that the manager of the store contacted the business asking it to pull the vehicles off the property. The only way people could get their cars was to pay a $380 towing fee.

Fox News Digital reached out to Gotcha Towing & Recovery, which refused to comment. 

Fox News Digital also reached out to Dunkin' for comment.
