From the Daily News:A brazen band of Queens car thieves stole 16 luxury SUVs from local dealerships, swiping some by simply driving them through holes gouged into a chain-link fence, officials said Friday.
A nine-month probe dubbed "Operation Lockbox" produced nine arrests - including a Brooklyn middle school assistant principal, Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.
The car theft ring, focusing on BMWs, Mercedes-Benzes and Lincolns, made off with late-model SUVs worth more than $400,000.
The clever crooks' favorite target was the Recon Motors storage facility in Whitestone, where they easily dodged security to drive SUVs off the lot like buyers taking a late-night test drive, officials said.

Likely driven to insanity due to Joel Klein's idiotic policies.
JOEL KLEIN = MISERABLE FAILURE
I am amazed they actually recovered some stolen cars. I have personally helped owners regain their vehicles when police chose to repeatedly ticket an obviously stolen car instead of returning it to the owner.
I guess the fact that stolen cars are used in major felonies cuts no ice.
the only crime I can see being perpetrated is that awful dye job on his rug.
get this elderly person into retirement soon
