What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Ohio
My son's truck was reported stolen a couple of months ago. We called towing companies, sheriff's department and other law officials and no one knew anything. A few weeks ago, he received a bill from a towing company, one of the companies that we called. They wanted $400 or they were going to keep the truck and scrap it. It was reported stolen and there is a report on it. Now since they were called and the law officials were called, is it legal for them to charge him to get it back, when they had it all this time and knew it was reported stolen?
