Default Corvette in NY Post Sunday

Ouch! Anybody see the pic of the smashed silverC5(looks like a Z06) on page 8 of the NY Post yesterday? Someone hit a pole in LI , then ran off on foot, later to be caught by Suffolk Co. Police! It was going south on Rt 110 in Huntington, when the driver lost control and skidded into a utility pole, which became imbedded in the car! Damn! (Had nice Z06 Motorsport wheels on it!)
