We called a canine out.
00:02
We thought we might have found,
00:06
or at least got information on that guy that stole the car and stuff.
00:13
What did you call the canine out for?
00:16
He was just at somebody's house like 15 minutes prior.
00:21
Holy crap.
00:23
Yeah,
00:27
so we called them, extra county units, all this stuff.
00:31
Didn't find him though, so we assume we got into a car and drove away.
00:36
The guy who stole the car came back out here?
00:40
That's what we're kind of thinking.
00:43
We don't know for sure.
00:46
Was there a blockhead on the vehicle or something?
00:51
No,
00:53
so no, we don't, there was none of the vehicles and come back on island that truck or whatever, but
00:59
it's the same area, near East Arctic Avenue,
01:03
in the same vicinity and the guy was trying to steal a motorcycle.
01:09
The truck was stolen from near West Cooper Avenue.
01:13
Oh, West Cooper?
01:16
Yeah, it was stolen from near West Cooper Avenue, but last week we had other calls about that area on Arctic people saying their cars were rummaged through.
01:29
Just that's two, which and four? Do the practice team?
01:34
Well, we didn't believe it's the person that's rummaging through. I thought the theft was on East Cooper, but we're thinking it's probably something to do with the guy that was rummaging through stuff.
01:48
This much, it's 537.
01:53
Yeah, because there was another call right after we got the stolen vehicle call, someone said on near West Cooper their car was gone through.
02:05
So it sounds like they just went down West Cooper looking for a car that had keys in it that was unlocked.
02:11
I also don't understand why these guys are leaving their car, their car keys in their car and the car unlocked, but whatever.
02:20
Yeah, they're asking for it at that point.
02:23
All I know is that the Folly Rummager will be stopped and will be brought to justice.
02:29
Hell yeah.
02:32
Frequent flyerboard, Folly Rummager.
