I hope he didn't have any Amiga hardware in the boot of his car! 
No worries, no Amiga in the trunk. He sold his Amiga 4000T a few years back and autographed it for the auction buyer. His friend who was helping him sell it was nice enough to get an autographed photo of him for me and send me photos of him signing the Amiga. Unfortunately, I lost the auction.
I am so happy he is safe. From my dealings with his friend and him indirectly, through the sale, he seems like a truly nice Gentleman.
Thank you for passing on the news. .
