Police are investigating the theft of a car from a London street, and a newspaper is reporting the vehicle was a BMW owned by Princess Beatrice. The Sun says 20-year-old Beatrice left the car unlocked with the keys in the ignition while she went into a store. Buckingham Palace would not comment. Beatrice, elder daughter of Andrew and Sarah Ferguson, is fifth in line to the British throne. She receives round-the-clock protection from a police bodyguard. The car has been recovered by police one week later, Jan. 16. © GPD AP The newspaper says the black BMW was a 17th birthday present to the princess (pictured with sister Eugenie) from her father, Prince Andrew. Police confirmed Thursday that detectives were investigating a car theft from a city street. The force would not say who owned it or confirm reports it had been left unlocked.
