An employee of a rental car agency in the Miami International Airport district discovered their 2015 Chrysler 200 4-door sedan missing from their premise. The employee contacted the Miami-Dade Police Department to report their Chrysler stolen. The responding officer prepared a stolen vehicle report, theft affidavit and had the vehicle’s information entered into the state and federal crime computers.
Later that evening, a Miami Beach Police Department officer picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Chrysler 200 on their on-board LoJack Police Tracking Computer (PTC). The PTC enables law enforcement officers to track, locate and recover stolen vehicles quickly and safely. The officer began tracking the stolen Chrysler by following the directional and audible cues on their PTC screen. The officer, along with their backup, located the Chrysler’s signal emanating from an elevated parking garage. The officers drove into the garage and drove floor to floor until they located the stolen Chrysler. The Chrysler was recovered, towed to the police impound yard for safekeeping, and removed from federal and state crime computer systems.
The LoJack® System was installed in the 2015 Chrysler 200 in November 2014 at Dadeland Dodge in Palmetto Bay, Florida.
