Available patrol officers in the area were alerted, chased the vehicle and requested for additional assistance. Due to public safety concerns, the chase was called off within the hour. Eventually though, Patrece Duncan was found near Union Ave and Front St. She stuck to her claims that she was kidnapped and taken high-speed through downtown Memphis while giving conflicting accounts of the incident to detectives. Furthering investigation, officers interviewed other witnesses who disputed Patrece's version of events.

Armed with evidence of discrepancies in her story, officers interviewed Patrece Duncan again. This time, she confessed to having lied about the kidnap. She admitted it never happened. According to Memphis Police Department, the false report she made was allegedly an effort to recover her Silver 2005 Chrysler 300 which was being used by her estranged boyfriend.
