Stolen - 1989 Jeep Comanche need gone yesterday (Strasburg)

 

WARNING! This individual posting this ad is attempting to part out vehicle illegally. This person is not the owner of vehicle and did not get authority from owner. Hence, that is why they do not have the title and need it gone yesterday. Contact me with any information you may have regarding it.

 

 

 

 

 

Ive spoken to both ad placers...... I was negotiating to buy this MJ when I saw the stolen ad pop up. First guy claims he bought it from the property owner where the truck had been abandoned a year ago. Second guy said he has the title and the first guy took it without his authorization and has made a police report.

Spent quite a bit of time texting/emailing the two people involved here..... tried to salvage a deal but this is a BIG civil mess.

 

The guy that has the truck, bought it from the property owner where it had been "abandoned" for more than a year.  He paid $850 for it w/o title (dummy) and discovered the title process is more than he wants to deal with so he put it up on Craigs.

 

Somehow, the owner and title holder found out about the ad and posted up the warning ads, then called the local police to report it stolen.

 

The VIN still comes up as not stolen so I called the P.D. that took the report.  They couldn't tell me much but did confirm that the title holder did file a report "that's still being investigated".

 

I'm going to assume that this is going to be a civil issue between the property owner and the title holder.  The kid that has the truck now "should" probably be in the clear having bought it under good faith and supported by Colorado law that allows a property owner to dispose of property as he sees fit when left abandoned on their property for more than 30 days.  

 

I've told the guy his best bet would be to call the property owner, bring him up to speed on the developments and ask for him to buy it back so that the truck's rightful owners keep their truck.  

 

He's gonna let me know how this all turns out.  

 

Apparently I'm considered a "witness" now and the P.D. wants to talk to me about what I know....... sheesh.  LOL!
