Authorities confirmed that Dolores Catania’s stolen Porsche has been found, but it was completely totaled when officers found it.
The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star’s boyfriend, Paul “Paulie” Connell said, “Police discovered Catania’s smashed car in Linden.”
“The car was involved in a chase and the occupants of the car crashed into a pole,” Connell says. “We believe there were arrests made when the car finally came to a stop, but not sure of the exact details. The car is totaled. It looks like possibly one of the occupants was injured or two of them.”
Catania, 51, went to see if the thieves had left any of her belongings behind, but Connell reveals there was nothing left in the vehicle.
“On the flip side, we are currently out car shopping,” Connell says. “She wants to make sure that people know, always lock your cars and keep your key fobs stored in a safe place.”
Connell also shared video footage of the totaled car to show just how extensive the damage on his girlfriend’s car looked.
The luxury car was stolen from Connell’s home in Edgewater, NJ, last weekend.
“Dolores is determined to find her car with the help of authorities,” an insider said. “A police report has been filed in Bergen County. She is aggravated but also really shaken up over the fact that someone would steal it right out of Paulie’s driveway.”
