My question involves criminal law for the state of: Ohio
An officer contacted a person close to me and informed that a walmart store has photos of an individual stealing merchandise on 3 occassions and have photos of my license plate (license is inot in my name it is in the contacted individuals name, im assuming thats how the officer got their phone number). The officer informed her of this information, then asked her if she knew anything about this and adv her to inform me to contact him, when they informed the officer that i drive that vehicle she gave the officer my name . He then looked up my drivers license and stated to her "it looks like her". The officer informed her to have me contact him and if i contact him he will work with me to work things out but if he has to track me down basically things will be to the full extent. (keep in mind before she gave him my name all he had was a license plate number and "allegedly" photos of an individual) in a panic after speaking to her i contacted the officer(no answer). The next morning the officer called me and asked if i knew of anything of the events that took place and asked me if i could meet with him in person to verify the person in the photos if its not me. Im trying to figure out(if iam the person in the photos) what to do and how to prevent having a criminal record,being arrested ,what can happen?, etc.
1.)If i "dont" meet w/ him what can happen?
2.)Should i just leave this alone and not contact or answer his calls?
3.)Is there any posibility or any way they can take this further?
4.)If all he has is a license plate number and photos of the thefts, how can he persue me?
