Signal 52[1], 2120, 3rd Street, Northwest, 2120, 3rd Street, Northwest. Caller states that he had a domestic dispute earlier with his ex-girlfriend, and the deputies told her to go pick up the four kids from school and bring them back to the call. Caller has not returned and wants to report the vehicle as stolen, states the kids are biologically theirs. I've dropped all of the information for the vehicle and the two subjects in the call. 10-4[2]. I'm aware. That's not exactly what transpired. That's 10-4. 4-1. 4-1. I've attempted to explain to Mr. (name withheld) that his car was not stolen, that he gave her permission to take the car and pick up the kids. He became upset again and hung up on me, so we can clear this call in November because the car is not stolen.
