The stolen Ferrari

Two football fans were arrested last night near the


stadium. The suspects were taken to the police station for
further investigation. They allegedly stole a brand
Ferrari.
The owner of the car told the police that the thieves were
wearing a football team jersey. After the suspects were
caught, the owner of the car was called to identify the
thieves.
 However, the owner of the car said that he had made a
huge mistake because the car hadn’t been stolen; the car
had been taken by his wife to go to a concert because her
car was broken. 
 An apology was offered to the two football fans; besides, the owner of the car offered to give them 5000 dollars
to compensate his mistake. The money was not accepted. The two football fans will be released tomorrow
morning.
