Understandable the question here is are tow companies are entiled to do police work?
how he get inside and who called them when the comunitty director stating over the phone and in my presence that if any car is tow he needs to be called at any time for his approval, also if this was the deal with the community director who aproved the tow? MR. C's towing trespassing private property are this is legal too? tow company driver cross two gates and went inside underground garage and tow vehicle without comunitty directors approval is this is ok? i don't think so.
Mr. C's Tow fail to inform the local police station before remove the vehicle they did 1 hour later. my vehicle wasn't blocking street, driveway ect,ect.
but the question still on a private property are they are entiled to do police work?

It doesn't really look to me like you were in a marked parking space. You were just parked in a traffic lane - I don't know if it's also a fire lane but it sure looks to me like you should be towed.

This is a unfortunate event in your life. What makes this even worse for you is that SOMEONE that YOU know did this. Its the only logical answer. If they, the tow company, doesnt have a contract with your building then the only way they could have gotten in is SOMEONE let them in. SOMEONE also pointed out your car and told them to tow it. I would be looking at ppl you may have upset recently. This really sounds like someone knew enough about your life to know exactly when to mess with you. As there is no Towcompany/client privilage, you SHOULD be able to get a name from the tow company. If it is found out that they just towed it JUST BECAUSE, then you will have a criminal complaint. But Im sure the police probably already discussed this with you.
