- A man was killed Thursday morning in east Vancouver while he was apparently attempting to steal a catalytic converter from a car.

Four Seasons Auto Repair and Tire Center owner Faazan Ahmed said the man was seen on surveillance video around 2 a.m. jacking up a silver Mercedes parked in the shop’s parking lot. The jack tipped over and the car fell, crushing him.

The man’s body wasn’t discovered until after 7 a.m., when Ahmed said someone next door to his shop noticed the man under a car.

—” explain to their buddies how they got beat by a yugo.”

A friend runs a ‘68 Dodge and on a good day with the planets properly aligned gets into the low 9’s.

Usually, he runs brackets, but on the practice runs, I have seen him beaten by some surprising cars in a heads-up race.

Including one that most spectators wondered about and he would NOT open the hood!!! And it was a street(?) car.

Never a Yugo, maybe this year?

It’s called “karma” and it’s pronounced ha-ha-ha-ha.
