not that this is an applicable question, but how in the hell did he get out of the car after he parked it between those columns?
car was parked at a different spot, we just found it there, it probably floated and drifted away, another car was found on top another, but they already pulled it down before I could take pics

when he bought it in 2006, insurance was covered for $140k which was its price back then, but recently after new government duty , same vehicle is now $260k so he is only covered for half the value plus depreciation .
