The city of Dallas has revoked the license of a controversial towing firm that hauled dozens of cars away from lots surrounding Fair Park during this year’s Texas/Oklahoma game.

Citing a long list of violations against Lone Star Towing — and 40 complaints stemming from the Texas/OU game alone — the city’s transportation regulation director, in conjunction with the city attorney’s office, pulled the firm’s license in a letter sent today.

In revoking the license, the city determined that Lone Star’s violations were intentional and firm principals were aware they were not following city regulations.

Lone Star can appeal the decision within 10 days.
