Thieves use oversized forklift to steal Ben Ali's Ferrari 599 GTB

Here’s something you don’t see every day. Driving down a highway in Tunisia, a news team happened to film a man allegedly stealing a bright yellow Ferrari 599 GTB supercar.

What’s odd is that he uses an oversized forklift to transport the vehicle, carrying it home in broad daylight through the middle of a reasonably busy highway. To make matters worse, the car reportedly belongs to the country’s ousted president Ben Ali who has fled to Saudi Arabia.

Angry residents of Tunisia have allegedly been looting his former villa and nearby compound, and it looks like one of them was lucky enough to make off with a Ferrari. We wonder if he managed to get the keys as well..
