The owner of this Acura TSX discovered the vehicle was stolen during the night from the secured parking garage at his apartment complex in Redmond.  The theft was reported to the Redmond Police Department.  The information was verified by Redmond PD and they entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Acura.

Shortly after the Acura was entered as stolen, the Snohomish County Sheriff’s deputies, Marysville PD officers and SNOCAT Auto Theft Task Force detectives picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Acura on the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft.

Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the Acura was tracked to a grocery store parking lot in Marysville.  The Acura was abandoned and appeared to have been parked there for some time.  The Acura was returned to a grateful owner who purchased the car new in Pennsylvania and had the LoJack® System installed at that time.

The LoJack® System was installed in the Acura in September of 2004.
