Ferrari crash case gets more bizarre

   It sounds like a spy movie gone awry.
   A $1 million Ferrari crashes in Los Angeles. It is owned by a Swedish playboy. He claims a German named Dietrich was driving the car and that they were racing a Mercedes at speeds of 162 mph when they crashed. Dietrich, the playboy says, fled after the crash.
   A man named Trevor who was at the crash site tells police he was a passenger in the Mercedes. He gives police his address: a yacht slip in Marina del Rey. But the $14 million yacht usually docked there is gone.
   Police now believe that there was no race and no Mercedes. They're also looking into reports from Scotland about a missing Mercedes that was bought through a phony company that is linked to a possible associate of the Swedish playboy, Stefan Erikkson.
   Police also have found that Erikkson has been linked to a group in Sweden known as the Uppsala Mafia.
   To learn more about this case -- including the part about the men who showed up at the crash site claiming to be Homeland Security officials, read the Los Angeles Daily News story below.
   Only in California.

Sounds more like Johnson County stuff.

Greg, the link to the story doesn't work.

For sure, Johnson County. Try 135th and Mission, Johnson County. How funny.

This could easily be Lenexa also. Do not forget them.
