Four men are now in custody, suspected of swiping two classic Japanese sports cars. These iconic vehicles, instantly recognizable by their round headlights and angular, fiery red bodies, have clocked up more than three decades. The suspects, all men aged between 39 and 41, were reportedly pinched whilst purloining these precious cars from a Nogata City parking lot. Authorities had already been on the trail of an elusive car-theft ring since last year, mainly focused on the Chikuho region. These four chaps caught the eye of the police as they appeared together in surveillance footage and shared mutual associations. The long arm of the law is now busy trying to determine whether these gents have any ties to the surge of car thefts in the region. Source: KBC / TNC
