Repo Man Shot at and Beaten in Oakland

“You’re going to die today,”

Oakland, CA – September 20, 2024 – One unfortunate repossession agent found out the hard way that some people have a pretty special love for their Cadillac. Taking gunfire, he also learned to be careful with what you leave within reach of the borrower in the bed of his tow truck.

Back on August 31^st, an unnamed Repossessor had already lifted a Cadillac with his tow truck lift when he met it’s RO. The also unnamed, 51-year-old borrower residing on the 7800 block of Crest Avenue had allegedly exited the residence and opened fire with two rounds.

Angry and ranting “You’re not taking my car,” the man allegedly grabbing the victim’s jack handle in the bed of his tow truck and began punching him repeatedly. The agent suffered a head injury and later told police his attacker told him, “You’re going to die today,” during the assault, authorities said.

The suspect borrower told police that he believed the repo man was actually a person who had been breaking into vehicles in the neighborhood and claimed that he actually helped the Repo Mand when he found out what was actually doing.

Police reported that when they arrived they found the victim Repossessor was outside in a pool of his own blood and the suspect was inside his nearby home. The suspect later admitted he knew he had incurred an outstanding debt of $2,000, authorities said.

The borrower has been released on $60,000 bail, with court-ordered conditions that include an understanding that police can search his home for weapons at any time, and that he stay away from the victim. His next court date has been set for October.
