All officers, having probable cause, may take and hold

vehicle shall immediately notify the local sheriff's office and
the rightful owner, if known. The notification shall contain a
description of the vehicle and any other facts that may assist
in locating the rightful owner or in prosecuting any person for
a violation of law.
