Hackers steal $200,000 Lamborghini from MLB star Kris Bryant
Thieves reportedly able to use compromised emails to reroute cars to other destinations A Lamborghini Huracan owned by a Major League Baseball (MLB) player was reportedly stolen by hackers on its way to Las Vegas. Police haven't released much information, but reports suggest the bad guys were able to reroute the cars to other destinations. The Lamborghini was recovered less than a week after being reported missing, leading to a case that led to multiple suspects as well as other stolen vehicles. Kris Bryant plays for the Colorado Rockies but spent the offseason in Las Vegas. This resulted in some logistical challenges, so the third baseman hired a shipper to transport his 2023 Lamborghini Huracan to Sin City. Unfortunately for Bryant, the car never reached its destination. The Cherry Hill Village Police Department in Colorado said the vehicle was reported missing on Oct. 2, sparking a multi-agency investigation into what happened.
