The owners of a Chrysler PT Cruiser contacted the Adams County Sheriff’s Office to report that their vehicle had been stolen.
A Sheriff’s Deputy verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Chrysler.
A short while later officers from several law enforcement agencies (Colorado State Patrol, Adams County Sheriff’s Office, Northglenn Police Department, Thornton Police Department and Denver Police Department) picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen PT Cruiser with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft. Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, Northglenn officers tracked the Chrysler to the area of the 10600 block of Loren Lane where they found the vehicle parked and occupied by two persons. The driver was arrested, booked and released pending charges by the DA’s Office.
The PT Cruiser was secured and returned to the very happy owners.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Chrysler PT Cruiser in July 2012 by North Central Ford in Forney, Texas.
