In what has to be one of the dumbest cases of car thefts I’ve ever heard of, police in Mashalltown, Iowa, caught a suspect driving a stolen Ford GT40 replica that had been painted black—likely to disguise what has to be the only example of such car in the small city of 30,000 residents. Who did this guy think he was fooling?
Steve Salasek, who works in Marshall County, Iowa, reported his bright yellow 1966 Ford GT40 replica stolen last Tuesday after noticing it missing from a storage locker, KCCI 8 News Des Moines reports. Upon hearing of the swiped supercar replica, Marshalltown police put out a public notice on the city’s Facebook page.
Within a day of reaching out to locals on Facebook, Marshalltown PD recovered the Ford GT40 Replica, finding the suspect driving the car—now painted black—on a residential street.
