From Fox 4 (Dallas):

Dallas woman's vanity license plate nearly lands her in jail
QuoteThere are more than 500 specialty license plate designs available to Texas drivers, but just one mishap could have landed a Dallas woman in jail.

She says the vanity plates she purchased were already in the system as "stolen."

Pretty hard to mistake a Mercedes AMG GT53 for a Dodge Charger.

They didn't.  They saw plates that had been stolen from a Dodge Charger mounted on a Mercedes AMG GT53.

Right, the headline is misleading because the officer used common sense to realize there was a mistake.
