A yoga pants stealing thief is still on the loose in San Francisco after they were able to escape the scene of a crime using a self-driving Waymo vehicle, police said.
The suspect was able to make off with loads of stolen merchandise from the Hot 8 Yoga Studio in the Marina back in January. They were then able to flee the scene in a driverless white Jaguar that was parked out front, per the San Francisco Chronicle.
Police are calling it the first-of-its-kind heist for the city after the suspect turned the high-tech vehicle in to a getaway car.
Despite the fact that all the driverless cars are equipped with numerous cameras, police said six months later with the surveillance footage they have obtained, they still don’t have their suspect.
“I would think it would be easier to solve in a Waymo,” Sgt. Tim Faye told the outlet.
After obtaining a search warrant to get the video and information on the rider from the company, cops have yet to publicly identify a suspect or make an arrest.
“It’s highly unusual in the first place that a Waymo is even used by a suspect,” Faye said. “It was disappointing that the internal video was not able to lead to the recognition of a suspect.”
By the time PD got the search warrant for video of the interior of the car, it was no longer available and footage from the outside of the vehicle only showed the faces blurred, in the name of privacy, per the report.

Who gets arrested for being the driver?
These robots are able to do the work of humans, but literally have no skin in the game.
Basically, having all crimes done by robots means all profit and no liability, for criminals.
,,, will Jaguar Motors be sued as an enabler?
Who paid for the ride?
Sounds like the setting for a robot meme. Humanoid robots do a heist and jump into a Waymo driverless car for a getaway. The humanoid robots are limited to running slower than a human. But the store clerks and police will probably be replaced by humanoid robots. It will be amusing for humans to watch the robots chase each other in slow motion.
I’m kind of impressed. A looter with thousands of dollars of yoga pants. A self-driving Jaguar. Cameras in the car, cameras in the store, cameras on the street, GPS records, credit records.
The Los Angeles Police Department is BAFFLED.
Seriously?
I’m not a fan of thieves, but when they’re this bold and law enforcement is this incompetent...?
They have it all wrong. The guy works for the Waymo.
A robot for a getaway driver - can Waymo be prosecuting for aiding and abetting??
Just thousands of dollars of yoga pants?
Going to have to steal Way Mo before it becomes significant.
It’s LA, Jake.
just please... Please!!.... dont sell em to any fat chicks!!
That’s their biggest customer, literally!
IMHO, there is nothing sexy about cellulite lumps bulging thru thin material. any woman who thinks that looks good TO ANYONE is simply retarded...
A pig in silk is still a pig.
Forget yoga pants
Car bomb
Waymo uses Jaguars?
Then again, who cares? /s
