A New York woman is questioning if she'll ever fly out of Montreal again after her car was stolen from the airport parking lot and she says police aren't doing much to help her find it.
Selma Mededovic drove to Montreal last Wednesday to fly out of Trudeau International Airport. When she returned four days later, her 2023 Toyota Highlander wasn't there.
"The feeling was horrible," said Mededovic, who called Montreal police for help.
When she called Toyota, the company was able to locate her Highlander and send its location to the police -- but Mededovic said she felt police didn't seem interested in finding it.
"They said, 'Yeah, your car is somewhere in the Port.' That's what he said. 'It's in one of the containers. We don't know which container it is, so we are not going there,'" she said.
Police have intervened at the Port of Montreal before, seizing hundreds of stolen cars.
In an email to CTV News, Montreal police said it does not comment on specific cases, but added it takes the issue of motor vehicle theft seriously.
