The owner of a 2004 Lexus RX-330 contacted the Baltimore County Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen from the 5600 block Whitby Road in the White Marsh area of Baltimore County.
The Baltimore County 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 2004 Lexus RX-330.
A short while later detectives in the Regional Auto Theft Team picked up the silent LoJack® homing signals from the stolen 2004 Lexus RX-330 with the LoJack® Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in their patrol vehicles. Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the officers tracked the vehicle to the 4800 block Pleasant Avenue in the Cedonia area of Baltimore. At that location, officers observed the vehicle parked and unoccupied. Surveillance conducted by the detectives on the vehicle resulted in the arrest of one suspect when he/she returned to the vehicle and attempted to leave the area.
The LoJack® System was installed in the 2004 Lexus RX-330 during September, 2007 at Lexus of Towson in Towson, Maryland.
