The food truck is back in business at First Friday after the absolutely harrowing ordeal. The owner of Lahotkeria, Simone Gamez Acosta, says she is thankful to be back in business so soon, but it's been a long, stressful morning, after being held at gunpoint and getting her truck stolen.

He said, 'I have kids too. Just get the out of the truck," she said. She was then pulled out of her truck and the two men stole it with her food trailer attached. Luckily, her phone was still in the truck, which is how the truck and trailer were found by Phoenix Police with the gun inside.
