Same thing happened to my dad when he got a letter saying he was in Rochdale at a certain time n date -when in fact he was at hime! Turned out he had bought a stolen bike and it was the real owner that was in Rochdale! Ended up both bikes getting scrapped!!

Well if your grandfathers car checks out ok they can keep out an eye for the other car. But knowing the police they will probably do SFA
Or as my man said could just be they got the plate wrong on the photo
Id phone them and explain your situation to them, then it the photos check ok - phono the police.
