Seen this stolen car? The photo and report are from Ana:
Our car was stolen last night or early morning today from 42nd and Graham. Washington plates #BEN3517. It is a black Subaru Impreza, 1998. Please contact 911 or call (425) 623-5448 if seen.
SPD case # is 2020-017186.
1/19 UPDATE: Found, per this comment.
We have a large number of stolen car reports. A surprising number. And I’m sure it’s just a small number of what actually gets stolen. Are cars not typically recovered?
Most ARE eventually found – often via the automated plate readers SPD uses (listen to the scanner for a day sometime and you’ll hear how often that happens), other times by people calling in a suspicious-seeming vehicle, and we’ve had some “reunions” via reports like these too. They may turn up outside the jurisdiction, though – I was researching a case last night in which a guy is facing two auto-theft-related charges, one in which he was found in South Seattle in a car stolen in White Center, another in which he was found in Tacoma in a car stolen in Federal Way … TR
Update! We found it ! It was found in Auburn this morning. Thank you so much for posting it !
Thank you for the update. Sometimes stolen vehicles turn up in another jurisdiction – like yours did – sometimes just blocks away from where they were stolen, so posting a “be on the lookout” here is always worthwhile just in case. – TR
Sorry, comment time is over.
