A metro man's truck is stolen right out of a parking lot, and it's caught on camera.

William Garrion has one set of wheels to get around, but he's missing the other.

“Unfortunately someone wanted my truck more than me,” Garrion said.

Garrion took his truck to Impact Collision in Oklahoma City to have it repainted.

“They do excellent work,” he said.

But so does someone else. The collision shop called Garrion.

“And asked me if I moved my truck, and my answer was ‘No,’” Garrion said.

However, surveillance video showed who did. Surveillance video shows a silver Chevy truck pull up next to Garrion's red Chevy, and then both trucks take off. Garrion eventually got another call.

“The police department called and said, ‘We have found your truck. We went there this morning, and it does look a little different,’” Garrion said.

It was stripped down to just a shell of a truck. The steering wheel is even missing.

“It was really saddening to see the only vehicle we have to actually get from point A to point B with my wheelchair,” he said.

People in the area of SE 44th where his truck was stolen say it's a problem. Garrion’s vehicle isn't the first to be stolen. He just hopes whoever did it is caught.

“I would love for them to be arrested,” he said. “It’s unfortunate whenever people have to steal other people’s property just to I guess make it in life,” Garrion said.

Garrion said the collision shop is working with its insurance company to see if his truck will be covered. He only had liability insurance. If you recognize the truck in the surveillance video or have any information concerning this crime, contact your local police.
