UPDATE: Taco Truck Bandit Turns Self In ~ East Los Angeles

2:46 PM PDT on August 8, 2009

    Clearly feeling the pressure from the taco community and hopefully feeling remorse for robbing hard working, unarmed taqueros in the community, the alleged ring-leader of the East LA taco truck bandits has turned himself in. We at TACO believe in redemption and hope this young man, who was reportedly surrounded by concerned relatives at a Sheriff's station, has seen the error of his ways. After his time inside, we hope he will also perform community service, perhaps by helping to service taco trucks free of charge, or pick up trash that some thoughtless customers deposit on the street after eating some tacos.
