A Montreal teen who couldn’t drive a stolen Lamborghini and crashed the expensive sports car into other vehicles was finally arrested by sharp Toronto Police detectives.
Police allege the suspect was part of ring of auto thieves who approached vehicle owners in parking lots or in driveways and demanded their keys.
The victims would either be sprayed with pepper spray or physical force used to obtain their car keys, police said.
“When unable to quickly get victims to turn over their keys, the suspects fled to their vehicle,” officers of the force’s Hold Up Squad said in a release.
“In one instance, they were able to get into the victim’s Lamborghini, but after smashing into several parked cars, abandoned it and fled,” according to police.
Some of the 800-hp super-quick Lamborghinis can sell for about $3 million each.
That incident occurred in November last year and police were able to identify the suspect and issue a warrant for his arrest. He was picked up in Montreal and returned to Toronto for trial.
He appeared for a bail hearing on September 5 and was refused.
Jamar Jacque Frame, 19, of Montreal, was charged with robbery with an offensive weapon, five counts of robbery, three counts of administer noxious substance and two counts of mischief.
