In O'Fallon, Illinois, USA, hijackers tried to steal a 380-horsepower Dodge Challenger R / T from a dealership in the 50th Anniversary Edition. However, the compartment turned out to be too wide and did not fit through the doors for visitors. O'Fallon Weekly reports.

• The thieves entered the car dealership at night, breaking the window. They decided not to use a special entrance for cars and tried to leave effectively through the main entrance, as in Hollywood films. After an unsuccessful attempt, they abandoned the wrecked muscle car and fled without stealing other cars.

• The police did not find anyone in hot pursuit and are still studying the recordings from the cameras. They are looking for a link to another incident that happened at the same time - a break-in of several cars that were parked near the dealership in the parking lot of a hardware store.

Earlier in the United States, amid massive protests over the murder of an African American police officer, George Floyd, looters stole 50 new cars from one car dealership overnight. Later, the criminals drove away from another dealership in a rare AlpinRoadster V8 worth $ 499,000 (34 million rubles) and crashed it a few blocks later.
