Someone I know bought a used phone online and after a couple of days he got a phone call from the police. I was talking about this incident and I said:
1) "They said that it was a stolen phone so he'd have to take it to the police station."
I wonder if the following sentence can be said as well:
2) "They said that it is a stolen phone so he'll have to take it to the police station."
Are both forms possible or is it better to stick to 1?
