You obviously don’t know how this is supposed to work.
The police are supposed to be able to determine that the car and occupants were not involved in the reported crime by running the plates, finding out who the owner is, then perform a computer background search on the owner, then call the owner and ask if he/she was anywhere near the location that the crime occurred at.
Once that is done, they are then required to ask the owner’s family and neighbors if the owner could possibly do anything like the crime reported. At that point they must close the investigation as unfounded.
