The owners of a 2013 Ford contacted the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department -Santa Clarita Station to report that their vehicle was stolen.

The deputies verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Ford.

A short while later, deputies from the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department -Santa Clarita Station picked up the silent LoJack® homing signals from the stolen Ford with the LoJack® Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft. Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the deputies tracked the vehicle to Valley Street in the City of Newhall. The vehicle had been abandoned by the suspect. The vehicle was recovered and impounded for safe keeping.

The LoJack® System was installed in the Ford in October 2013.
