A video posted on Twitter shows $600,000 worth of hellcats stolen in under sixty seconds, but all were soon recovered.
A wild video has circulated on social media showing a team of thieves recently breaking into a car dealership in Kentucky and stealing brand-new Dodge Challenger Hellcats in under sixty seconds.
“Really just heartbreaking. It’s $600,000 worth of cars gone. You know, that’s a lot of money. A pretty big deal,” Adam Bryant, the manager of Don Franklin Chrysler Dodge Jeep in Somerset, told local media outlet WKYT.
The dealership made it easy for the thieves by leaving the keys inside the sportscars, each valued at $95,000.
“And they were gone. Once they tripped the alarm, it takes 60 seconds before it starts alerting. They were gone 20 seconds before the alarm started to go off. The response time of the police was like three minutes. It was really good,” Bryant said.
Although four of the six stolen cars were retrieved in neighboring counties, one of the vehicles was recovered as far as Alabama, and another was discovered in Tennessee.
According to the Ford patent application for repossession-linked technology, Ford could shut off your AC if you miss a car payment.
