Says repo but that's not what happened.
From the comments it's the owner taking off in the tow truck and came to a stop not long after when he hit a bus.

Here's some better video without the commentary.
It includes other repo videos after.

The idiot in the OP.. my my. You thought you were doing some kind of prevention, or intervention. Now, you caught a felony theft case, felony damage case, 2-3 felonies with that bs.

I have an interesting repo story. In 2009, I drove from Houston, TX, to Anchorage, AK, with my Dad and cats. I was unarmed due to crossing the Canadian border and all of my fun stuff is illegal in Can-eh-duh. I could've had a 12 gauge (think hunting gun not SD gun) or bolt action rifle with me, but it would've had to have been locked in hard case and ammo locked in separate hard case (i.e. excuse me Mr. Badguy or bear, please give me 5 minutes to defend myself). It was an uneventful trip (no flats, no breakdowns, no thefts) except for 5 tense minutes in Cheyenne, WY. It was a clear, sunny morning and we decided to stop for gas at a large, clean gas station. Dad headed into the c-store, and I noticed a pick-up truck w/ 2 men pull into an adjacent gas pump and they had a shiny, new high-end tool box in the back end (I can't remember whether Mac, Snap-On, etc) which stood out to me. A minute or so later some white trash tweeker looking female pulls into the gas station and begins yelling at the guys with the tool box and one of the things she yells was "you're dead when xxx gets here." Shortly after, her significant other (also looks like a white trash methhead ) arrives at gas station at high rate of speed and skids to a stop. I hustled into c-store, turned Dad around who was walking out front door, and had the clerk call 911 (my cell phone was in truck). Turns out the two men in the pickup with the toolbox were repo men who didn't gas up before repossessing the toolbox and that gave the white trash who quit making payments on their fancy toolbox and fancy tools time to catch up with them.

A guy I knew, had a car towed. There was some question about whether the tow was legal, and there was some damage to the car, for which the tow company denied responsibility.

The car owner war royally pissed and vowed revenge.

He got hold of a tilt switch from a junked pinball machine and rigged it to fire a shotshell from beneath the bumper of a junker car, then parked the car in the same place where his first car had been towed from. When the tow truck lifted the car to tow it, the shotshell fired. Fortunately for all concerned, there were no injuries and no real property damage.
