The vehicle has not been in use since it was taken back but according to the businesswoman, she lent her friend the vehicle on Sunday to transact some business.
Her friend had reportedly stopped at a Chinese Supermarket and parked the car on the opposite side of the road, when he exited the Chinese shop, the vehicle was gone.
“So when he walk out back the vehicle gone missing so then he had called me, we went to the station, make a report and come back this morning looking for the vehicle,” Alphonso said.
The woman said she subsequently received a call informing her that the vehicle was found. The car was completely destroyed by fire.
