This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things #532

Oh man, look at that sleek 2010 Lexus RX 350. It’s a beaut, ain’t it? This year saw a completely new redesign for this $37,000+ luxury sport utility vehicle, and some lucky Sheepshead Bay resident living near East 19th Street and Avenue W snatched one up. Good for him.

Oh, wait, that’s right. Lexus is on the list Sheepshead Bites told you about of cars targeted for wheel, rim and parts theft. So it’s no shocker where I’m going with this. See that fancy tail light in the picture above?

Presto! Gone!

Apparently thieves cut right into the bumper to get the light out. Our tipster said they only got one of the taillights, but the other one is loose. Looks like someone probably scared the scum off.
