Every repo man knows the basic rule: Always check the trunk. But a repo man in Lead, S.D., should have checked the back seat.
A 4-year-old girl got the ride of her young life Wednesday when a repo man repossessed her mother's car while the child slept in the back seat, the Black Hills Pioneer reports.
The girl's mother called police when she found her car missing from a downtown parking lot, but an investigation quickly discovered that the car had been repossessed, said Lead Police Chief John Wainman, who declined to give the names of the girl, the mother or the repossession company.
The girl was returned, the car was not.
Wainman noted that the repo man did not do a thorough investigation of the vehicle before taking possession of it.
