Police Report Filed Against Me

So I was looking to purchase a 15k short sale deal and I contacted the listing agent to get more info. The house was on a lock box so she told me"make an appointment and go in and take a look around." So I did exactly that. Hours later I get a call from the homeowner saying that he has filed a police report against me because there was things missing from the house.

Really?!? Kinda feel like there trying to scam me on something.
So what is going to happen?Any advice?

She gave you the lockbox code, but the appointment wasn't confirmed?

Sounds like this homeowner is trying to scam you. I still wouldn't talk to the police without a lawyer. They are not your friend.
