The owner of a 2003 ford F-350 stake-body truck contacted the Baltimore City Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen from the 5900 block Daywalt Avenue in the Cedonia area of Baltimore, Maryland.

Baltimore Police Department verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers automatically activating the LoJack® System concealed in the 2003 Ford F-350.

A short while later detectives from the Regional Auto Theft Team and flight officers in the Baltimore City Aviation Unit “Foxtrot”, picked up the silent LoJack® homing signals from the stolen 2003 Ford F-350 with the LoJack® Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in their patrol vehicles and helicopter.  Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the detectives and flight officers tracked the vehicle to the 1900 block E. 20th Street in Baltimore. At that location, detectives observed the vehicle parked and unoccupied. The vehicle was recovered by detectives and the owner notified.

The LoJack® System was installed in the 2003 Ford F-350 during February, 2007 at Regional Management in Baltimore, Maryland.
