3200 block of Chillum Road: At about 9:15 am officers responded for the report of a stolen auto. The reporting person told the officers that another family member brought a female friend (known only as “T”) to their residence. A short time later the reporting person observed that the keys to his vehicle were missing as was Ms. “T.” When the reporting person went to look for his 2001 Lincoln Town Car (Maryland tags 2DSG04) it was gone as well.
