Most people would be happy to hear that their stolen car was returned, but not this Denver woman. Her vehicle was taken from the parking lot at the Denver International Airport and returned just now, when she has no more use for it.
Natasha Gay says she’d been at work for no more than 3 and a half hours when she was told her car, a Toyota SUV, had been taken from the employee parking lot at DIA. At the time, she had a part-time with Avis and she took the news pretty badly, because it meant she’d have to change everything about her daily routine.
This was at the end of July this year.
Eventually, she tells Fox31 Problem Solvers, she accepted the reality that she wouldn’t be getting her car back. Her insurance paid off the loan and she started taking the train to work, settling in a new routine she now loves.
Then, this week, she got the most surprising call: her car had been returned to the exact same parking spot from where it’d been taken. How’s that for a comeback?
Normally, any other car driver would probably be thrilled at the news. Gay, however, can’t use the car anymore since the insurance company has paid for it, so she has no claim over it anymore. Then, there’s the question of why the thief brought it back, one that wouldn’t let her take the car even if she could.
“I was just surprised and wondering if a car I had stolen... why would they return it to the parking lot 4-and-a-half months later? It was just very off to me,” she tells the media outlet.
She’s hoping Problem Solvers will help her get to the bottom of the mystery. The Denver Police has also initiated an investigation and are looking through surveillance video of the parking lot on both occasions.
