ATLANTA – An Atlanta mom wants to find whoever stole a food trailer she used as an income to help support her family.
–>
The thief stole the trailer from a home off Metropolitan Avenue in southwest Atlanta.
“You took from a single mother who is doing her best to provide for her boys,” Lyquelia Bell said.
<!–>
Simply put, Bell is disappointed someone would steal her flat top cooking trailer she’s worked so hard to get.
–> <!–>
“My brother came to visit me, and he was like, ‘Where is your trailer at if you are at home?’ And I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ He said, ‘Your trailer is not at grandma’s house.’ And I said, ‘Don’t play.’ And he said, ‘No, your trailer is not there,’” Bell said.
–>
Bell built her business from scratch and a nearby camera caught the seconds it took for it to drive away.
<!–>
It was parked outside a family member’s house in the Capitol View Manor Community.
–>
“On the camera, we can see someone pulling up, loading it with the trailer, and pulling off, and it’s gone,” Bell said.
<!–>
It started as a little griddle on the ground. With hard work and saving, it grew to a food trailer.
–>
<!–>
Later, her four sons wanted to join their hardworking mama.
–>
“We started the Italian ice. So, it’s ‘Munch To Go’ and ‘ Golden Boyz Cold Treats’ that’s together,” Bell said.
<!–>
But it’s more than just a trailer.
–>
“Having that trailer built from scratch, it’s very sentimental because I was struggling, trying to get it,” Bell said.
<!–>
It’s a reminder of the passion and hard work it took to get it.
–>
“You took more than just a trailer, you took a piece of our mind, a piece of our happiness,” Bell said.
<!–>
If you know anything that can help this family find their trailer, contact Atlanta Police. They say they just want it back.
–>
They also set up a GoFundMe page in case they can’t find it.
