LEGO City set 60137, “Tow Truck Trouble”, depicts a police scene built around a tow truck and an urban law enforcement incident. Released in 2017 under the Police subtheme, it contains 144 pieces and 3 minifigures.

Within LEGO City, this set sits in the Police subtheme, which focuses on urban incidents, pursuits, and law enforcement scenarios. “Tow Truck Trouble” frames its subject around a tow truck and a police response, making it suitable for street layouts, police settings, and contemporary city scenes.

The set includes 144 pieces and 3 minifigures. The listed figures are a criminal with an open orange safety vest over a prison shirt, black hat, and bushy moustache, a policewoman with a dark blue jacket, radio, badge, belt with pouches, white helmet, and trans brown visor, and a police officer with a bright light blue shirt, dark blue tie, badge, belt radio, dark blue legs, white helmet with visor, and moustache.

It is aimed at builders and collectors who want a compact LEGO City Police scene with clearly defined roles. The tow truck subject gives it a practical city vehicle angle, while the minifigure selection supports police play and display. Among sets from the same theme, it works as a small companion build for expanding a street, chase, or police response layout.
