Nick Kyrgios' mother has allegedly been held at gunpoint by a man who then stole the tennis star's fluorescent green Tesla in Canberra.
According to a statement of facts tendered to the court by police, a man at the door replied "it's Chris".Police said Ms Kyrgios unlocked the front door and partially opened it before she saw a long-barrel gun pointed at her. About 15 minutes after the car was taken, police said they tracked it down to a street in the suburb of Watson.
Police said they pursued with their sirens on, reaching 90km/h in a 50 zone "in an attempt to catch up to the green Tesla".Police eventually ended the pursuit as the vehicle entered a school zone.
