The teenage suspect in the daring heist of a celebrity chef's Lamborghini and a brazen shooting from a motorcycle is being investigated for a variety of other possible crimes, including a series of recent bank robberies in Northern California by a mysterious masked man, Marin County Sheriff's officials said Wednesday.

Besides the stolen Lamborghini, a motorcycle and a .357 revolver believed to be used in the shooting, the search revealed a trove of contraband, including automatic weapons, a police uniform, sophisticated electronic transmitting devices, bugs and other evidence of possible criminal activity beyond what anyone had imagined.

Wade, who is being charged as an adult, was arraigned Tuesday in Marin County Superior Court for attempted murder, burglary and other related crimes. He is accused of stealing a $200,000 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder owned by celebrity chef Guy Fieri after rappelling from the roof of a San Francisco dealership on March 8, 2011, and then cutting the locks on the showroom door

Yup. Beat me to it. He is a good candidate. Give him a choice between the Army/Marine Corps, or jail. Then, after boot camp, recruit him. He has the right mindset and is obviously intelligent. He would be a good asset, if he is properly motivated and trained.

This story is unbelievable; cell phone jammers, freqs for LE and matching UHF jammers, possible GPS jammer, full-auto weapons, police uniform, ability to make very good fake ids, fake badges, experience enough to rappel down and building and pull off this theft in a fairly high security environment. At 17?

Yes, the headline screamed “Automatic weapons”.
But the text does not back that up.
In Ka-Ka-Kalifornia an “Assault Weapon” can be a single shot firearm.

“A dismantled AK-47” is unlikely to be an “Automatic Weapon”, MUCH more likely merely a SEMI-Automatic, but that detail would not fan the anti-RKBA agenda sufficiently.

Show me the “Automatic Weapon(s)”, show me the internals, then I can determine the truth.

The kid is obviously smart. I have a doubt he’s one of Obama’s sons though.

If you want to talk filthy, check out the "before" versions of the failing restaurants featured in Restaurant Impossible, also on the Food Channel with Guy's show.
