5 May 2021Carjackings on the Rise Amid Pandemic
NPR reports that the FBI does not gather numbers, nationwide, for carjackings, but individual cities do, and these cities are reporting an explosive uptick in carjackings as the pandemic still continues. In fact, Minneapolis reported 405 carjackings in 2020, which is more than triple the number for the entire year of 2019. What’s even worse, according to the NPR report is the fact that many of the suspects arrested in these events are juveniles between the ages of 11 and 17.
Minneapolis isn’t alone in this marked increase in carjackings. Other cities that have noticed sharp increases include:
- New Orleans, LA
- Kansas City, MO
- Louisville, KY
- Washington, D.C.
- Chicago, IL
The first food truck ever was created in 1866 by an entrepreneur named Charles Goodnight. Known as the Chuck Wagon to many, it was built from an old Army Studebaker Wagon that Charles purchased from the government.
Rebuilt to his exact specifications, the Chuck Wagon often served beans, corn, stews, and occasionally fresh shrimp and catfish caught from nearby bodies of water.
Fast forward over 150 years later, food trucks have become the main part of American culture. With over 25,000 food trucks active in America today, technology has dramatically changed the way food truck owners operate in the 21st century.
Here are 3 essential business services every food truck owner needs to utilize in 2021.
