From KOAA:

Quote :: "It is the policy of the Colorado Springs Police Department that victims of crimes whose vehicles are towed as part of the criminal investigation will not be charged tow/impound storage fees while at the Impound facility," Sgt. Garza wrote via email.
Yet we found the department wanted to charge Mary $178 to get her car back.
"I need my car for my doctors' appointments that I have to go to," Mary said. "That's my transportation and I'm 80 years old and I'd like to have my car back so I can do what I have to do."
News 5 Investigates contacted Colorado Springs police on July 11th. The next day, Colorado Springs police called Mary and told her they would waive all impound fees and release her vehicle.
"I think your calls obviously helped 100-percent," Mary said.
We went to the Impound Lot to verify Mary's car would be released without any problems. We did confirm her vehicle was released for free.
