WEST SEATTLE CRIME WATCH: They called police for help – then ended up in jail
A Gatewood resident reported a stolen phone to police, who were asked to "standby" while it was retrieved. However, police arrived to find three people exiting a green Subaru, which was later found to have a stolen license plate and a tampered ignition. The individuals claimed they had borrowed the vehicle from a friend earlier that day, but the vehicle's VIN did not match the one registered to the stolen Subaru. They were arrested, but the report does not specify charges.
