Stolen vehicle. An Ormond Beach couple called police after a vehicle they had rented out with a third-party company failed to be returned.
According to a police incident report, the couple had rented the car for a three-day period. Shortly after the rental began, they received a message on the company's app that the renter, a Daytona Beach man, had been arrested.
The person messaging the couple told them the renter was his uncle and that he had the car but wasn't sure where the keys were or where he should drop it off to return it. In later messages, the person said he had retrieved the keys from his uncle's belongings.
The couple gave their residential address and instructed the vehicle be dropped off or they would report it as stolen to the police. However, the vehicle's GPS ceased to operate just as they were supposed to return it. They pressed charges.
