Two teens who allegedly used fraudulent credit card numbers to rent an expensive sports car were thwarted when the car was reported stolen and they were pulled over by sheriff's deputies, sheriff's officials said.

After deputies pulled the 2012 McLaren over in Roseland, California, on Wednesday, deputies discovered that the two 19-year-olds had also rented a $12 million vacation home for $27,000 using the same credit card numbers, sheriff's officials said.
