If any property answering such lists and descriptions is in the possession of any licensed dealer or is thereafter offered to or shown to any licensed dealer, he shall, without unnecessary delay, give information to that effect at the nearest police station or to any police officer, with the name and address of the person in whose possession the property was seen, and in default thereof he shall be liable on conviction to a fine not exceeding $200.
