Qatari sheikh leaves US after Ferrari race through LA
Police were considering charging Sheikh Khalid Hamad Al-Thani with reckless driving and other offences before he - and his cars - disappeared.
The Thani family rule Qatar, but it is unclear whether Sheikh Al-Thani is part of the Arab state's royal family.
A video shows his yellow Ferrari racing a white Porsche down residential streets, passing a stop sign.
The video ends with the Ferrari's engine smoking as the sports car pulls into a driveway in the affluent section of Los Angeles.
Sheikh Al-Thani has been dubbed the "patron sheikh" of drag racing, according to the Los Angeles Times.
He has given millions to Al-Anabi Racing, and has been photographed driving on racetracks a number of times.
Police said the cars in the video were driving recklessly.
However, officers who arrived to find the cars in the drive were unable to make an arrest or issue a citation as they hadn't witnessed the incident.[/QUOTE
If so then no one accused of any crimes like burglary or murder should be arrested if officers didn't witness the incident?
Misdemeanors and felonies are treated differently in California.
Why am I not surprised? Comes from a middle eastern country but hates America...hmmm another sleeper cell, terrorist in training I suppose
