The owner, or person having a lien or encumbrance upon a registered vehicle which has been stolen or embezzled, may notify the commissioner of such theft or embezzlement, but, in the event of an embezzlement, may make such report only after having procured the issuance of a warrant for the arrest of the person charged with such embezzlement. Every owner or other person who has given such notice must notify the commissioner of a recovery of such vehicle.
