A dealership in Utah purchased a white Audi RSQ8 from a dealership in California. The Audi was picked up by a transport company but never made it to Utah. The dealership in California had placed an additional tracking device on the vehicle. When the vehicle didn't arrive in Utah, they began tracking the vehicle. The active track on the vehicle showed the location to be in the Mansfield/Kennedale area. Task Force Investigators responded to the location, obtained a search warrant and were able to locate the stolen Audi RSQ8, valued at $165,000. During the search at the location, Investigators also found a stolen BMW X6 xDrive40i valued at $90,000, that was stolen out of Florida. Both vehicles were being prepared to ship to Africa.
