Marshmello’s $350,000 Truck Stolen For Joyride and Chased By Police

Last year, Marshmello got a ridiculously large and expensive truck, and yesterday is was apparently stolen from a dealership and taken on a joyride that turned into a police chase.

The $350,000 Hennessey VelociRaptor 6×6 was stolen from a dealership service bay and ended up in a police chase on the streets of Los Angeles.

“Thanks to a turning radius somewhere between a container ship and a mid-century ranch house,” writes Jalopnik, “a colossal 6×6 truck is a terrible choice for evading cops, at least in an urban setting.”

LAPD told local news the thief rode to the dealership on a bicycle and threw it in the truck bed before taking the vehicle, which you can sort of see in the first tweet below. After trying to make a turn on a narrow street, the driver crashed the truck into a light pole and disabled the vehicle, allowing cops to apprehend him.

The suspect has not been identified, and, according to the sheriff’s department, may have been under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
