The Pink in Blue

Some heists end with a high-speed getaway, others end with a pink Beetle in a canal. This runaway Volkswagen clearly had a rough day, and whoever was behind the wheel decided to pull a Houdini, leaving the car to face the consequences. It’s like the thief decided to make a grand exit and then thought, “Actually, let’s make this dramatic.”

The car tried to be a submarine but didn’t quite make the cut—though it sure gave the Tampa Bay police a good story to tell back at the station. Let’s hope the authorities got a good laugh, because the Beetle? Well, it’s headed straight to an unexpected retirement.
