They are truckers, they transported goods all over the country and now they say they have not been paid. They say that in some cases Flagship Transport owes them thousands of dollars for their work and they are asking to be paid.

The workers have been demonstrating since yesterday. They went to rest and today they came back. They told us that there are a total of 250 truckers who have not received their check for weeks for the work they have already done.

All say they are living this moment with worry and anguish.

“We have to pay bills, we have to pay for food, gas, and that causes us a very big emotional problem,” says one of the truckers.

This morning we tried to speak to a representative from Flagship transport, but at the door they told us the owners were not there and explained their situation, also as workers.

“We are in the same situation, but we are getting another job.”

Then we went to another address in Medley, which records show is associated with the company. We couldn’t find any answers there either.

Some truckers told us they were stranded in the north of the country because they had no money for fuel, and apparently company cards were blocked, they say.

In addition to the debt to the drivers, Flagship Transport has an eviction petition from this land, filed in court, for a rent debt that exceeds $154,000, which is a public record, according to the property manager’s claim. This was done by letter. dated March 8 and is part of the evidence in the trial.
