MISSION — Mission Mounties are asking owners of mid-2000s black Infiniti G37 coupes to count the number of wheels on their vehicle.

According to the RCMP’s Community Connection, on April 18 at around 6:45 a.m., an Infiniti coupe crashed into a moving car and a parked car in the area of Caribou Street– and lost a wheel in the process.

“If you are missing an entire wheel – specifically the front passenger wheel – please contact us, as we have information about where it is,” Mission RCMP wrote.

“Aside from continuing to drive afterwards with only three wheels – contrary to the manufacturer’s recommendation to ensure all four wheels are attached at all times – it seems like the driver should also have noticed the shower of sparks shooting up from the car, or the screeching sound of the vehicle’s front-end grinding against the pavement while it drove.”
