The caller could only say the car was located "at a park near Miriam," referring to Miriam Hospital in Providence. Officers searched the surrounding area, including nearby Lippitt Park, but came up empty. About an hour after the call, the log noted officers had "checked parks in area—Miriam Hosp—unable to locate."

The Kozaks were ultimately found on February 11 in a parking lot directly adjacent to the hospital. Police said they later notified a relative in Germany via WhatsApp.
