need help, towed by 2 wheels, drivetrain making noises

hi everyone, well, as in the title, we believe my cousins WRX was towed by 2 wheels, there's weird clunking noises coming from the center diff. , a new dent in her front fender, a dent in her GAS TANK (god knows how that got there), but mostly just worried about the drivetrain and that noise coming from the center diff.... anyone experience this and have any tips on how to pursue getting this fixed and claimed from the towing company.....

extra notes, they towed her car before, but on a ?cradle? or something... that time the vehicle also came back w/ exterior damage done to the rear bumper, paint chipping and an obvious hit, but she let that slide....

thanx all, please help me show my cuzzo how helpful the i-club community is...

if you get towed on two wheels on awd..then all the gears would get ***ed up internally of the differential...i dont think the car would ever move anymore... you can blame the tow company becuase they should know what to tow it on...
