Exclamation Toyotafest | T.O.R.C. Important Announcement

ATTENTION! The 17th Annual All Toyotafest hosted by T.O.R.C. was an awesome event for everyone, but unfortunately there was an incident that has slightly dampened the whole mood...Apparently 2 one of a kind Red T.O.R.C. Lexus flags could not be found and have most likely been stolen. Several announcements were made during the closing of the show, but they never turned up. As far as I know, T.O.R.C. has already filed a police report on the issue, but I would greatly appreciate it if any of you that heard something or know something to please, please, please let the people at T.O.R.C. know (email: events@toyotaclub.org). It is a shame that something like this had to happen....

Excerpt from a note from the T.O.R.C. president:
We have taken great pride in presenting a clean family atmosphere for this event and that has been a big plus for our corporate supporters Toyota, Scion and Lexus. This unfortunate event puts that support in jeopardy these flags are part of a major display that travels the country and has not been put out of commission if Lexus, Toyota and Scion decides to pull their support over this we may have to eliminate some categories from future events and that would be unfortunate to all participants and spectators alike, we would appreciate the return of these flags as soon as possible no questions asked. Or, any information leading to its return will be kept in confidential.

....or to try and steal emblems and put in on theres so they can register next year?
