The San Francisco Police Department verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers, which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Dodge.

Later that morning, after the automatic activation of the LoJack System in the stolen Dodge, SFPD officers picked up the silent signals from the LoJack System installed on the stolen Dodge on the LoJack Police Tracking Computers installed in their patrol vehicles. Following the directional and audible cues from the LoJack computers, the officers tracked the moving vehicle to the BayView District of San Francisco. Officers stopped the stolen Dodge and arrested both driver and passenger.  Both subjects were also served with outstanding felony warrants for auto theft and drug violations.  The owners of the stolen Dodge were contacted to claim their undamaged stolen vehicle.    

LoJack® System was installed in the 2009 Dodge Avenger on 11/21/2010 in Roseville, CA.
