"FBI agents in Los Angeles have seized a rare Mercedes Roadster worth $13 million as part of their drug trafficking investigation into former Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding. The car, a silver 2002 Mercedes CLK-GTR, is one of six of its kind ever made, according to Autoblog. Federal investigators believe the car may be connected to Wedding and his associates, who are accused of transporting cocaine from Mexico into the U.S. and Canada."
"Earlier this month, prosecutors unsealed an indictment that accuses Wedding of ordering the killing of a witness who had planned to testify against him in a 2024 federal narcotics case. The witness was shot and killed in a restaurant in Medellín, Colombia, in January, The Times reported. Wedding is on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted list for allegedly running a vast and lucrative criminal enterprise."
