Malden Police identify, issue arrest warrant for second suspect accused of stealing two Lamborghinis

MALDEN, Mass. — Malden Police have identified the second suspect accused of stealing two Lamborghini SUVs from a local dealership and issued a warrant for his arrest.

Christian Virgile, 18, formerly of Malden, is wanted in connection to the theft of two Lamborghinis that were stolen from the Herb Chambers dealership in Wayland on Tuesday morning.

Police had gotten a call around 3 a.m. about a break-in at the dealership on Boston Post Road, Lt. Sean Gibbons said. A rock was used to smash through the glass and gain entry to the showroom and two Lamborghini SUVs valued at around $200,000 each were stolen and driven off the lot, he told Boston 25 News.

An officer saw the two stolen Lamborghinis, along with a Chevy Cruze, speed away. The officer was able to pull over the Cruze but couldn’t catch the sports cars. Police say two people in that car were taken to Wayland Police Headquarters. It’s unclear if or when they’ll appear in court.

Later, Malden police say they got a report of two sports cars racing around the city, at which point a patrol car started following them. When the patrol car caught up to the Lamborghinis, police say they had crashed into each other at Charles and Pear Streets in Malden shortly after 8 a.m.

According to police, two people ran from the cars. One of the suspects, Elijah McKinney, 18, was arrested at the scene of the crash while Virgile was able to run away.

A person in another car, who police say was not involved, was injured and taken to the hospital.

McKinney pleaded not guilty in Cambridge District Court on theft and resisting arrest charges. Police say when they caught him, he had two sets of Lamborgini keys on him.

Virgile is charged with receiving a stolen motor vehicle, leaving the scene of a motor vehicle crash after causing personal injury and operating a motor vehicle without a license.
