A question about a truck decal spotted on a Los Angeles freeway escalated into what Reddit users are calling “insane detective work,” after a social media post helped connect a distinctive vehicle to an alleged hit-and-run case in the San Fernando Valley.
The thread began on the Los Angeles subreddit when user @chata187 posted a photo of a dark-colored pickup truck spotted on the freeway. The truck bed contained lumber, and across the rear window was a large decal spelling out “MAMALONA.” The caption read, “seen on the freeway. what does MAMALONA mean in this context? also, does he respect wood?”
