On March 14, 2019 at 5:06 a.m. Officer Barros was conducting building security checks when he observed a Volvo SUV with Rhode Island registration plates that was parked at an odd angle.  He queried the registration which showed it had been reported stolen to the Providence Police Department on March 10th.  The Providence Police Department notified the owner that the vehicle had been located.  The vehicle was towed by Roadside Rescue and moved to their secure lot.
