Chad Knaus’ laptop computer with Sonoma race notes stolen
SONOMA, Calif. — According to an Associated Press report, thieves smashed a right-side rear passenger window in Chad Knaus’ rental car and stole briefcases containing a laptop computer with this weekend’s race notes, his wife’s art supplies and “a significant amount of cash.”
Knaus is the crew chief for Jimmie Johnson and the No. 48 Hendrick Motorsports Chevrolet. Johnson and Knaus have been together since the seven-time champion’s rookie season of 2002.
The robbery occurred Wednesday night near Fisherman’s Wharf, where Knaus and wife went to dine. They parked their car on a crowded street and when they returned the window as smashed and the briefcases stolen.
