The Tulsa Police Department has hundreds of Ford Crown Victorias in its fleet. It also has a Cadillac Escalade.

Tulsa Police Officer Jillian Roberson explains how TPD got its hands on the high-dollar wheels.

Roberson says, "If we are able to show that the monies used from buying drugs are used to purchase these vehicles, then we can go through the court system and seize these vehicles back from the drug dealers."

There is a sticker on the back of the luxury SUV that says "This used to be a drug dealer's car... now its ours!"

Officer Roberson tells KRMG that no tax dollars were used to buy the car.
