The friend should have called Coast Guard when he saw his truck though not the Frickin ascension parish pd

My understanding is that this is wrong. The ball started rolling once the truck was found. The problem was that the friend had to drive from Ascension to GI and see the truck before that started.

Ascension was called directly after the inital call to GIPD. GI told him to call Ascension, Ascension told him there was little they could do for 24 hours for a missing person's report and recomended that he try to locate the truck to speed up the process.
