Why wouldn't you be able to do that yourself?

Didn't know where he was.

Have them call HR.

Very likely this is would be the effect of a company-wide policy that would apply to every employee. (writing "would" because I'm convinced this entire post is BS)

Ok, if it's company policy that would validate my statement further.

You were aware of the warrant. Did you call the police and say "hey he works at xxx, here's the number to HR to get his location"?

Yes, I did. I don't know if they pursued it.

Microsoft does work with law enforcement on a regular basis.

If the police had at all reached out in an official capacity Microsoft would have assisted.

You may want to follow up with whatever officer you talked to.
