VW’s Lopez Files Statement With German Prosecutors: Jose Ignacio Lopez de Arriortua filed the report with the prosecutors investigating whether he illegally took secret documents when he quit General Motors Corp. in March. The state prosecutor’s office in Darmstadt said Lopez filed the report Friday, the same day Volkswagen’s supervisory board admitted that former GM employees possessed sensitive documents after defecting to VW with Lopez. The prosecutor, who gave no details on Lopez’s statement, hasn’t yet said whether charges will be filed against him.
