Indy 500 winners Dixon, Franchitti robbed at a Taco Bell
INDIANAPOLIS — After winning the Indianapolis 500 pole, collecting a $100,000 check and doing the usual interview circuit, Scott Dixon tried to relax.
Instead, he got the scare of his life.
As he ordered dinner for his teammates at one of the few fast-food restaurants still open near Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Dixon and three-time Indianapolis 500 winner Dario Franchitti were robbed at gunpoint while waiting in the drive-thru line.
Neither was injured and two boys, ages 15 and 14, were arrested a short time later.
