IF you ever mustered up the courage to “borrow” your parent’s credit card, at most, you’d buy a new video game or maybe subscribe to a premium service of sorts – you know, things that’ll possibly slip under the radar.
Renting a R2.5 million McLaren F1 probably won’t.
The car, which apparently costs $13,000 (around R137,000) to rent, was taken on a joy ride by Mohannad Halaweh (19) after he stole a random credit card. But you can’t have the car without the house, right? So Halaweh also rented a $12 million holiday home.
Subtle.
Halaweh was arrested on suspicion of possessing stolen property and credit card fraud; his bail was set at $100,000. Kahsay was arrested on outstanding fraud warrants and is expected to face additional charges in connection with the most recent incident, Raasch said. His bail was set at $60,000.
