The Missing Escalade
Rio Grande, NM
8:41 p.m. - A North Prince Drive caller said his red Escalade was stolen then he hung up. He called back, said the police better find the car before he did, “expletive pig.” He then hung up again. A woman called dispatch and said she lent the phone to her daughter. The daughter lent the phone to her friends, the woman said. Dispatch told the woman they did not appreciate what the male had said and if it happened again they would send a police officer to the residence.
