Briggs Lamborghini found damaged



A damaged Lamborghini belonging to Chicago Bears linebacker Lance Briggs was found abandoned along a highway early Monday morning. Illinois State Police said the heavily damaged 2007 Roadster was found off the northbound lanes of Interstate 94 at 3:14 a.m. local time. The Italian sports car had crashed into a light pole.
A police spokesman told PA SportsTicker that no one was found inside the car and there was no indication that anyone was injured in the crash. Whoever was driving the car valued at more than $300,000 could face charges of leaving the scene of an accident.
Temporary Texas license plates were on the car, but permanent Illinois license plates registering to the vehicle to Briggs were found inside. The car had not been reported stolen.

Re: Briggs Lamborghini found damaged

-Update-

Chicago Bears linebacker Lance Briggs faces one misdemeanor charge for leaving the scene of an accident that left his 2007 Lamborghini Murcielago wrecked on Interstate Highway 94.

Briggs also was ticketed for failure to immediately notify police of a crash and for improper lane usage. He posted a $100 bond and has an Oct. 4 court date in Skokie.

During questioning by Illinois State Police on Monday in Des Plaines, officials said Briggs confirmed that he was the driver of the car.

The heavily damaged sports car was found around 3:14 a.m. off the northbound lanes of the Edens Expressway near Devon Avenue, Illinois State Police Sgt. Theodore Whittier said. No one was found in the car and there was no indication that anyone was injured in the crash, Whittier said.

Temporary Texas license plates were on the car, but permanent Illinois license plates registering the vehicle to Briggs were found inside, Whittier said.

Re: Briggs Lamborghini found damaged

-Update-

NBC 5 in Chicago is reporting that Bears linebacker Lance Briggs went to at least two Chicago nightclubs Sunday night before crashing and abandoning his Lamborghini early Monday morning. The station does not report whether Briggs was seen drinking alcohol.
The TV station also reports that yesterday was for from the first time Briggs got a blemish on his driving record. Briggs' California driver's license was suspended for a year in 2005 for speeding and negligence, and he had three speeding tickets in Illinois in 2004.
For crashing his Lamborghini Murcielago and leaving it on the expressway around 3 a.m. Monday, Briggs has been charged with one count of leaving the scene of an accident and given two traffic citations, for improper lane usage and failure to give immediate notice of an accident.
Bears coach Lovie Smith got mad yesterday when reporters asked him if alcohol was involved in the crash.

"How did we get to that?" Smith asked. "We have a one-car accident, and now alcohol is involved? I think that's stretching it a little bit."
