Indy 500 pole winner robbed at gunpoint at Taco Bell

[cbhausen]

WIBC is reporting that Scott and Emma Dixon and Dario Franchitti were robbed at gunpoint in the Taco Bell drive-through line last night on W. 16th St.

They are OK but probably a bit shaken up. I'll bet the Speedway and the Mayor are proud of our city.

Glad they weren't hurt.

I think 16th & Berwick is in Indy, not Speedway. 16th & Tibbs (general area) is no place to be at 10pm in an expensive car (I'm guessing he wasn't driving a Ford Focus).

The punks who robbed then are damned lucky they drew a Kiwi and a Scotsman... I know a few drivers who would have poured them a nice warm cup of lead for their efforts.

Good thing Stinky Shoes closed Eagle Creek range. City is so much safer.

That taco bell is no place to go in the daytime...and not for any kind of implied reasons either. 3 times I have hit that drive through to be told.. We can't take you order we are out of meat or we're out of taco shells. I was like how does taco bell not know when they are getting low on taco shells. But I believe they caught the suspects and a buddy that was there said there was a good dog bite involved

This wouldn't have happened if there was a wall.

Just make sure the wall is high enough.

It certainly makes our city shine, doesn't it?

Who the hell celebrates winning the pole position by going to Taco Bell?

My guys took the report and caught all 3 suspects involved. I talked to Dixon and Franchitti for a bit while waiting for the detective to arrive.

My guys took the report and caught all 3 suspects involved. I talked to Dixon and Franchitti for a bit while waiting for the detective to arrive.

Attaboys!

It was a 2017 Acura MDX.

Makes sense, with Honda being his major sponsor.

I don't know about Dixon, but I'm almost sure Dario really looked up to your guys.

I've met him, and I think he's about 5'5" in high heels.

Ok, that may be an exaggeration. I think he was wearing Nikes.

 

[Frank_N_Stein]

And as a bonus one was dog bit.

And as a bonus one was dog bit.

Dixon or Dario?

 

[HoughMade]

Was a weapon (or weapons) recovered?

They are both about 5'8 I would say.
