What Women Want

The deputy dispatched to Kinney Creek Road at about 11 p.m. faced the unusual task of locating a car that was both missing and not missing. While the woman reporting the non-theft clearly did not have possession of her red Subaru Baja, she was certain that her head-strong boyfriend did. And while her boyfriend definitely didn’t have her permission to take the car, she believed he might be under the impression that he did. And though the absent Baja was due to be repossessed any time now, it wasn’t insured and she feared her sweetheart might get in trouble if pulled over. Long story slightly shorter, she wanted the car declared missing but not stolen, and wanted her boyfriend found but not arrested. Probably conflicted, the officer left the runaway Romeo several cell-phone messages before pronouncing the case both closed and not open.
