The owner of a 2007 BMW 650 contacted the Baltimore Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen from the 4300 block Parkton Drive in the northeast area of Baltimore.

Baltimore 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 2007 BMW.

A short while later detectives from the Regional Auto Theft Team picked up the silent LoJack® homing signals from the stolen 2007 BMW 650 with the LoJack® Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in their patrol vehicles.  Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the detectives tracked the vehicle to the 1000 block Vine Street in Baltimore. At that location, detectives observed the vehicle parked and unoccupied. Detectives recovered the undamaged stolen BMW and contacted the owner.

The LoJack® System was installed in the 2007 BMW during May, 2007 at Chapman Scottsdale Autoplex in Scottsdale, Arizona.
