Jason Wilson probably never thought that a petty argument over his insistence to stay out with friends would cost him all his belongings and even his work van. The 24-year-old plasterer has called off his wedding plans after his fiancée and mother of his two children revengefully loaded every single piece of his clothing, except the one he was wearing, into his work van and then rolled it off a ramp in their town's harbor. Even worse, Jason came to know about the incident from none other than his boss, who had been contacted by police over a floating van bearing his company's name.
