As the city wakes to another day of hustle, a local business reels from a significant loss. Knoxville Police Department's Property Crime detectives are on the lookout, appealing to the public for any information regarding a stolen food truck trailer, the mobile lifeline of Dulcie’s Café. According to an alert released by the Knoxville Police Department, the theft occurred early Sunday morning from an address at 701 N. Cherry Street.
Caught on camera at the scene was a white truck, which appears to be a rental from Home Depot, entering the lot just after 1 a.m. and exiting with the stolen goods hitched. A visual chronicle of the heist was captured via security footage, showing this nondescript white truck as the orchestrator behind the café's sudden immobility. "The pictured white truck, which appears to be a Home Depot rental truck, was captured on security footage pulling into the parking lot at just after 1 a.m. Sunday morning and leaving with the trailer," the Knoxville Police Department stated.
The authorities put out a call, ensuring anonymity for those who step forward with details; a cash reward is a further incentive for the community to act as collective sleuths. The East Tennessee Valley Crime Stoppers is the designated contact for tips at 865-215-7165.
