On November 25, 2012, the owners of a 2000 Honda Accord contacted the Denver Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen.
The police 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 vehicle. LoJack is the only theft recovery system that is directly operated by law enforcement and this interface is seamless and instantaneous.
A short while later, officers with the Englewood Police Department picked up the silent LoJack homing signals from the stolen Accord with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTCs) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft. The LoJack PTC provides officers with on-board information which permits them to locate the stolen vehicle quickly and with an increased margin of safety.
Following the directional and audible cues from the LoJack PTCs, the officers tracked the vehicle to the 200 block of West Grand Avenue.
The LoJack Vehicle Recovery System was installed in this Honda in July of 2000 at Norm Reeves Honda in West Covina, California. The vehicle was valued at approximately $7,475.
