I bet you the car wasn't even stolen, but the driver's own. Can the last politician to go out the revolving door please turn the lights off?
No word if the Merc was stolen or not. You'd think the police might have included that minor detail in their statements.
You'd also think that if someone wanted to make a big mess, they wouldn't pick one of the less busy streets in the area at 4am.
