Criminals are not exactly renowned for their intelligence, and one suspected Ferrari thief seemed eager to prove this stereotype true. According to police, a thief stole a $1 million supercar, parked it about seven minutes away from where he took it, and then lingered nearby long enough for the police to track him down. Now, if convicted, he could be facing five years or more in prison.

The thief attempted to evade police in the 1,000-horsepower Ferrari SF90, valued at over $900,000

The whole incident took place on Thursday, December 19, when the owner of the Ferrari SF90 Spider, said to be worth around $900,000, called the police at around 2 p.m. to report the supercar stolen.

The police quickly learned that the owner could track the vehicle remotely. As a result, they headed to the intersection of Northwest 16th and Northwest Kearney. Sure enough, the Italian supercar was still there, unoccupied.

The authorities said they began canvassing the area for clues. “Officers gathered information that two suspects may have fled from the parked car, and police soon caught up with them at Northwest 15th Avenue and Northwest Lovejoy Street. One man was identified as the suspect who took the car, and he was taken into custody,” the Portland Police Bureau said.

Indeed, the accused had stolen the nearly $1 million Ferrari just a block away. He is accused of taking the car from Northwest 10th Avenue and Northwest Lovejoy Street.

The thief is facing several charges, including unauthorized use of a vehicle and possession of a stolen vehicle. The latter charge carries a potential penalty of up to five years in prison and a $125,000 fine. The owner got their car back undamaged, which is certainly good news.
