When identifiable parts have been stolen from a vehicle but the vehicle has not been stolen, and the owner reports such theft to the Station/Unit having jurisdiction, a theft report (SH-R-49) shall be taken and the stolen parts entered into SVS.
When a stolen vehicle has been recovered and identifiable vehicle parts have been removed between the time of the theft and the time of recovery, the vehicle shall be cleared in SVS and the missing parts entered in SVS. If the recovered vehicle is another agency's stolen, a locate message noting all missing parts shall be sent to the other agency who will enter the missing parts into SVS.
Parts include engines, transmissions, campers and VIN plates. Items, such as stereo tape decks, mag wheels, etc., should not be placed in SVS but entered in the Automated Property System.
