The Theft

SITUATION:
"During the day 24th August, just a week ago, there has been a theft. The police is looking for a stolen white car with the license number MX·213·RK. The people who have been already asked about it said that the robber was walking near the fire station and then took the car and ran in a high speed. It is said that the theft occurred around noon of that Saturday, while the owner of the car was doing some shopping, and when he realized that his car wasn't there, he called the Police immediately."
