US man sues dealer after his plumbing truck is seen being used by jihadists to fight in Syria

Mark Oberholtzer, owner of Mark-1 Plumbing in Texas City, left the 'Mark-1 plumbing' stickers on the truck when he traded it in for a newer Ford pickup at AutoNation Ford Gulf Freeway in October 2013. A year later, a photo posted on Twitter by the extremist Ansar al-Deen Front from the front lines of the war in Syria showed his truck - stickers and all - being used by jihadis. Oberholtzer, who says he has received death threats, is now seeking more than $1million in punitive damages from AutoNation Ford Gulf Freeway for fraud, gross negligence, negligent misrepresentation, defamation, invasion of privacy and deceptive trade, according to Courthouse News.
