The owner of a 2014 Nissan Altima 4-door sedan discovered their car missing from their home. They contacted the Sunrise Police Department to report their vehicle stolen. 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.

Immediately upon activation, while on routine patrol, a Margate Police Department officer picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Nissan on their on-board LoJack Police Tracking Computer (PTC). The officer began tracking the stolen Nissan by following the directional and audible cues on the PTC screen. The officer, along with their backup, located the 4-door sedan abandoned in an apartment complex parking lot in the 400 block of Lakeside Drive. The sedan was recovered, towed to the police impound yard for safekeeping, and removed from state and federal crime information computer systems.

The LoJack® System was installed in the 2014 Nissan Altima in February 2014 at Royal Palm Nissan in Florida.
