Hopefully somebody just jacked his car and it wasn't him that wrecked it.

[FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3]WSCR radio in Chicago reports that a black Lamborghini owned by Bears linebacker Lance Briggs has been found crashed and abandoned. [/SIZE][/FONT][/LEFT]

[LEFT][FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3]Though we don't know whether Illinois law imposes hit-and-run liability for a one-car crash (and we invite any members of the Illinois bar to let us know what the rule is there), Briggs' motivation to leave the scene was greater than was his desire to remain with a car that costs [I]slightly[/I] more than the average horseless carriage.

Or Lindsay Lohan!

... I'm sorry for that, I watched The Soup 3 times this weekend and I think it warped my brain.

Doubt that. I would think he would know first of all that his car was gone.....? and report a 350 k car missing and just remember he's a bear......then again maybe TANK borrowed it.

I know I'm sticking my neck out there DUI possibility........

Re: Police Want to Question Briggs Following Possible Hit and Run
 

Well, they'll get him for wreckless driving and leaving the scene of an accident, and John Q Law will slap his wrist. However, Roger Goodell will suspend him for 32 quarters...

Re: Police Want to Question Briggs Following Possible Hit and Run
 

If he was drinking, it wasn't the dumbest move to ditch the car and come back after the booze is out of his system. I mean, if no one else was involved it wasn't the worst idea as it preserves plausible deniability. I don't think there's anyway Goodell could suspend him for this.

Especially if he had a dead hooker in the back...

Re: Police Want to Question Briggs Following Possible Hit and Run
 

Good thing we kept McIntosh, instead of trading him for Briggs. The way Rocky looks now he might end up being better than Briggs. No wonder why the Bears wanted him so bad.

True. However, Hit and Run is usually a felony. I'm not sure what the laws are in Illinois, but if it is a felony then that might not be too much better than a DUI.

Re: Police Want to Question Briggs Following Possible Hit and Run
 

If it's only one car involved, is that hit and run?

Re: Police Want to Question Briggs Following Possible Hit and Run
 

Questions for the zen masters:

If a car crashes in the woods, does it make any sound?

What sound does one car crashing make?

If I would blow a .25, should I run from a one car accident?

The honorable Wikipedia says:

[QUOTE]Hit-and-run is the crime of colliding with a person, their personal property (including their motor vehicle), or a fixture, and failing to stop and identify oneself afterwards.[/QUOTE]

I'm guessing the light pole constitutes a fixture.

Hit and run isn't usually a felony unless there's personal injury involved.
