Trouble Arises from Used Junk Car Purchase! Recycling Plant Attacked

A report from New Taipei City states that a recycling company that purchases used junk cars has encountered trouble. After the facility was attacked, the operators realized that a man named Wang, who had previously come to sell a car, had used the car owner's registration and a forged power of attorney to have the vehicle towed to the recycling plant for disassembly and sale, sparking a series of disputes. This vehicle had previously made headlines in the media about two weeks ago, when a wanted man named Zhang used it to transport drugs and ram into the police, leading to officers firing their weapons to stop the car.
On the day of the incident, a man in a white shirt entered the recycling facility, shouting loudly and wielding a telescopic baton, violently smashing the telephone, cardboard boxes, and glass on the table, causing employees to panic. According to the staff, this man had originally expressed a desire for reconciliation, but due to the lack of agreement on the compensation amount, he subsequently resorted to destructive behavior. Workers noted that the boss had not asked for the car owner's ID, nor had they checked any necessary documents, revealing a clear oversight on the part of the company.

When Wang came to report the junk vehicle, he presented the vehicle registration and a power of attorney belonging to a woman named Zheng, completing the transaction for 22,000 NTD. However, after Zheng was released from prison, she discovered that the vehicle had been sold to the recycling plant and dismantled, raising concerns that the company failed to verify the authenticity of the documents presented, leading her to demand compensation. Unfortunately, the two parties could not come to an agreement on the compensation amount, causing further tensions that resulted in the attack on the automotive facility.

Additionally, it has been revealed that the vehicle in question had previously been stopped in late May during an inspection in the Xizhi area, where the driver, a wanted man named Zhang, resisted checking and rammed into police vehicles, prompting officers to fire four shots. This case is still under review by prosecutors, and this vehicle, which was involved in the crime, has already been secretly sold and dismantled, leading to an unintended fallout from the original case.
