100 car2go Mercedes hijacked in Chicago crime spree

Car2go, the free-floating car-sharing service owned by Daimler, temporarily shut down its service in Chicago on Wednesday after dozens of Mercedes-Benz vehicles were stolen using the app. The Chicago Police Department was alerted by car2go that some of their vehicles may have been rented by deceptive or fraudulent means through a mobile app, a spokesperson wrote in an emailed statement to TechCrunch. The news was first reported via tweet by Brad Edwards, a reporter with CBS Chicago.
