The owner of a 2015 Toyota Tundra 1794 Special Edition pickup truck contacted the West Palm Beach Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen sometime during the night. The responding officer prepared a stolen vehicle report, theft affidavit and had the vehicle’s information entered into the state and federal crime information computers.

Later that morning a Miami Gardens Police Department officer, returning from court, picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Tundra on their on-board LoJack Police Tracking Computer (PTC).  The officer began tracking the stolen Tundra by following the directional and audible cues on their PTC screen. The officer, along with their backup from an Auto Theft Task Force investigator, located the Tundra abandoned in the parking lot of an apartment complex in the 1900 block of N.W. 30th Street, Miami. The Tundra was recovered, towed to the police impound yard for safekeeping, and removed from state and federal crime information computer systems.
