Vacaville Police Return Stolen Vehicle
VACAVILLE (CBS13) - After receiving an alert about a stolen vehicle, Vacaville officers were able to get the car back to its owner.
Just after 8 a.m. Sunday, dispatchers received a hit from an Automated License Plate Reader system about a stolen car near the outlets.
After responding, they found that the stolen vehicle, a black Nissan Altima, had recently been bought by the driver's son on Craigslist for $500.
Unfortunately for the buyer, however, officers were able to get the vehicle back to its rightful owner in Concord.
The Vacaville Police Department says that this is a reminder that we should be wary this holiday season about buying online. Make sure you do so in safe areas and verify the seller's credentials.
