Where is Sheikh Khalid bin Hamad al Thani? Beverly Hills wants to know
A Middle Eastern sheikh who claimed to own a Ferrari caught on video zooming through Beverly Hills apparently left the U.S., police said.Beverly Hills police say they are continuing to investigate the case of the Ferrari drag race even though the whereabouts of the exotic car's owner -- a member of Qatar's ruling family -- remain unclear.
The controversy started when a video surfaced last weekend showing a yellow Ferrari valued in the seven figures speeding through stop signs and blazing past pedestrians. The video generated anger in Beverly Hills as well as a police investigation.
