On September 30th, 2012 the owner of a 2006 Honda CBR 1000 motorcycle contacted the Myrtle Beach Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen from a hotel parking lot in downtown Myrtle Beach.
Myrtle Beach officers verified the theft and entered the Honda’s information into the state and federal crime computers, which automatically activated the LoJack transponder concealed in the motorcycle.
Some time later, officers from the Horry County Police Department picked up the silent LoJack homing signals from the stolen Honda on the Police Tracking Computers installed in their patrol vehicles. Following the directional and audible cues from the LoJack computers, the officers tracked the motorcycle to a residence in rural Horry County, along the North Carolina State Line. The Honda was recovered and one suspect was arrested. This remains an ongoing investigation.
The LoJack Vehicle Recovery System was installed in the Honda on June 12, 2007 at Cycle Power, Inc. in Howard Beach, New York.
