A short while later, officers from the Santa Fe Division of the Oklahoma City Police Department picked up the silent LoJack homing signal from the stolen Honda Accord on the Police Tracking Computers installed in their patrol vehicles. Following directional signals and audible cues from the LoJack computer, the officers tracked the stolen vehicle to the 6200 block of South Douglas in Oklahoma City.

The LoJack Vehicle Recovery System was installed in the Honda in April of 1997, at Autosport Honda Inc.
