Months after a costly mechanical failure sidelined his mobile food business, 16-year-old Frankie Beal, owner of the Mister Dipz food truck, is back on the road.
Beal is able to resume his business thanks to the combined efforts a business owner and an anonymous donor.
His truck sat idle for months after he learned a critical repair on a fuel pump would cost hundreds of dollars.
I was really, really sad originally when my mom told me," Beal said. "Because again, it felt like it's like a part of me was missing, I guess.
The recovery began after KSHB 41s story on Beal aired in September.
An anonymous donor came forward with a $600 check to help with expenses, and Shane Edwards, owner of I70 Auto Service, offered to complete the repairs at no cost.
