COEUR d'ALENE - The bad news is a Coeur d'Alene man's car was stolen. The good news is he was able to acquire a very detailed physical description of the alleged thief.
The 60-year-old man told police he was out drinking at Club 41 bar, in Post Falls, Wednesday night, and met a woman. He couldn't remember her name, a detail that he now wishes he had more actively pursued.
He said he left the bar with the woman, in her mid-20s, and they checked into the Holiday Inn Express at 11 p.m., according to a Coeur d'Alene Police report.
While he's certain he was able to spend the night with the woman, he wasn't sure where he parked his green 2006 Chrysler 300c. The problem was he was intoxicated when he and his guest arrived at the inn, located at 2300 W. Seltice Way, the report states.
After a few hours alone in their suite, the man woke up around 3 a.m. Thursday and noticed the woman he had just met was gone, and quickly realized the key to his car also was missing from his pants pocket.
When he went outside, the roughly $13,000 car, with license plate number K322997, was gone.
He told police he doesn't know where the woman went, and doesn't know how to contact her again.
But he did know this: She was Hispanic; about 5 feet 7 inches tall; weighed 140 pounds; had beautiful, long dark hair; and had a tattoo across the center of her chest.
