I found an NPR article about it that goes into some detail.
I saw that the other day. I don't know what could possibly cause something that bad. I want to pull my hair out when I go to LA for the weekend. I couldn't begin to fathom this. I'm sure I would end up filing a stolen car claim and walking home.
