These residents of North Andover, MA discovered their Toyota Corolla missing from their driveway on a Sunday evening. Thanks to their local police, with help from the LoJack® system installed in their car, they didn’t have long to worry. The Corolla was recovered in less than 90 minutes after LoJack activation.

On December 22nd, 2013, the Toyota’s owner contacted the North Andover Police to report that their vehicle was stolen. Officers verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers, which automatically activated the LoJack device concealed in the Corolla, which was installed at Rockingham Toyota-Dodge-Nissan in Salem, NH

A short while later, MA State Troopers and Chelsea Police Officers picked up the homing signals from the stolen car on the LoJack tracking computers installed in their patrol vehicles. The troopers found the Toyota near the intersection of Blossom and Spruce Streets in Chelsea, where it was parked and unoccupied. The undamaged corolla was retrieved and soon returned to its grateful owners.
