Martinez in Shock as High-Performance Dodge Charger is Stolen!

In a twist straight out of a movie, the city of Martinez, Georgia is buzzing after a high-performance 2020 black Dodge Charger SRT Hellcat was stolen from Jim Hudson Lexus, a popular dealership on 3410 Washington Rd. The luxurious ride, valued at a staggering $70,000, is now the focus of an active investigation led by the local authorities, including the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office.

Surveillance Footage Reveals Suspects

The whole incident unfolded around 9 p.m. on Monday when surveillance video caught two men hanging around the Dodge Charger before it mysteriously disappeared. Talk about a scene straight out of a car heist film! The footage shows a black Infiniti Q50 rolling onto the dealership lot from Pleasant Home Road and stopping right in front of the eye-catching Hellcat.

As the video rolls on, one of the men hopped out of the passenger side of the Infiniti and, curiously, walked out of the camera’s view behind the Charger. The Infiniti then made a swift getaway onto Washington Road but returned moments later, suggesting a carefully orchestrated plan. Talk about suspicious behavior!

How the Theft Went Down

The mysterious passenger re-entered the Infiniti and handed what looked like “an unknown device” to the driver. Intriguingly, this device appeared to work its magic—allowing the Hellcat to be unlocked and started without a hitch! Just like that, within a minute, the majestic Dodge Charger roared down Washington Road, not alone but seemingly followed by the Infiniti. Can you imagine the adrenaline rush that must have been?

The Beauty of the Hellcat

For those unfamiliar with this magnificent beast, the Hellcat is not just any ordinary car. It features a powerful supercharged 6.2-liter Hemi V8 engine that cranks out an impressive 707 horsepower. That’s enough power to zip from 0 to 60 mph in less than four seconds! It’s a thrilling ride, but sadly, not for the good folks at Jim Hudson Lexus anymore.

Keeping an Eye Out

The local community and authorities are urging anyone with information related to the theft to come forward. It’s clear that these clever criminals thought they had it all figured out, but with surveillance footage now in the hands of law enforcement, they might just be caught sooner than they think!

As the investigation presses on, residents are left both shocked and alert. Martinez has always been a peaceful community, and incidents like this remind us to keep our eyes peeled for suspicious activity around us. Law enforcement is working diligently to track down the whereabouts of the stolen Charger, and the criminals behind the crime.
