KILLEEN, TX — The Killeen Police Department said that a woman has been arrested for making a false report.

Police said that the woman, Rosalind Edwards, told police she saw a man in a green truck stole her food trailer in the 35000 block of Dustin Court.

She told police that she tried to catch the suspect, but he was blocked by an unknown person in another vehicle.

After investigating, they learned the truck was never stolen.

It had been repossessed by the owner.

Edwards had not fulfilled her obligations with the owner when she purchased the food truck, police said. Edwards was aware the food truck had not been stolen, but had in fact been repossessed before she filed a police report with the Killeen Police Department.

The Killeen Police Department said they would like to thank viewers for sending in tips about the trailer.
