03:42
Three.
03:44
All right, so this is actually going to be that the woman who took the car is (name withheld).
03:50
So our call taker was on the phone with, I think, (name withheld) mom, or (name withheld) daughter said that's her mom, and she took the car.
03:59
So this is all going to be related to yours.
04:02
I'm just, I'm going to dupe it all in.
04:04
All right, Temple, we're about to make contact.
04:06
You want to just tell her if she's over there?
04:09
Yeah, we'll give her a call back.
04:12
All right, everybody that's on this event, I'm preempting you off because this is actually related to 723's earlier call for a missing person.

04:45
Okay, so the motor vehicle theft, it's crash, all this, this is all related to 23 because it's not a motor vehicle theft.
04:53
It's just the mom has to mention, correct?
04:56
That's in a nutshell, yep.
05:04
Has anybody spoken with Patricia or do we need to call her too and let her know that mom's in the car over at Pulaski?
