Thieves smash classic Mustang into store to steal PlayStationThieves in Athens, Greece, have done something less than intelligible. According to reports... several miscreants used a restored 1967 Ford Mustang as a battering ram to gain entry to an electronics store. Once in, they reportedly stole PlayStation video game consoles and potentially other items. Whether the thieves purposely took the Mustang for a joy ride or simply grabbed any vehicle that was easy to steal is unknown, but it seems the car's main purpose was acting as a break-in tool. Unfortunately, they crashed a valuable classic car that had just been restored. The owner, Vasilis Hatzievthimi, had reportedly spent roughly 45,000 Euros fixing the car to pristine condition. Now, nearly every part of the exterior and some of the interior has been damaged.
