A young couple who couldn't afford to pay a tow company to get their SUV back after a deadly chase in Oakland that killed their cousin finally got their Volkswagen Atlas back.

to get their SUV back after a deadly chase in Oakland that killed their cousin finally got their Volkswagen Atlas back.

Adante Pointer said that Ina Lavalu, 24, and her husband, Daniel Fifita, 25, were able to retrieve their vehicle this weekend after KTVU aired a story about their plight. Auto Plus of Oakland would not let them get their Volkswagen back unless they paid a bill that was more than $1,200, nor would the towing company let them retrieve any of their personal belongings unless they paid up. Oakland Police Department

called Pointer to say that Lavalu and Fifita could use victim's assistance fund money to pay for the return of their VW, which they use to drive around their seven children, four of whom they are raising after a relative died. The reason it's totaled stems from what happened on June 26 at 54th Avenue and International Boulevard.

That's when a 19-year-old driver, identified as Arnold Linaldi, was allegedly at an illegal sideshow and speeding down International Boulevard at 100 mph.

“Linaldi was arrested on suspicion of gross vehicular manslaughter, but had since bailed out of custody. He has not been charged by the District Attorney's Office with any crime.” Well, see, that right there might be the real story ktvu… 🙄

The Volkswagen is now totaled and the couple will have to figure out what to do with it now. So they still don't have a car.

Can someone put Arnold Linaldi in prison for 5 years for illegal side show?
