“We now have to figure out how to buy a new truck and that’s what he works out of. I’m a stay-at-home mom with two kids and he’s the only income and he’s trying to work out of my little car,” Law said.
Action News Jax is still working to get a police report and confirm the suspect’s name.
Law has set up a GoFundMe to assist their family. To learn more, click here.
