The owner of a 2015 Land Rover Range Rover sport utility vehicle contacted the Miami-Dade Police Department to report that their vehicle was 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. Shortly thereafter while on routine patrol a Broward County Sheriff’s Office deputy picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Range Rover on their on-board LoJack Police Tracking Computer (PTC).

The deputy began tracking the stolen Land Rover by following the directional and audible cues on the PTC screen. The deputy, along with their backup, located the Land Rover in the 400 block of N.W. 31st Avenue, Fort Lauderdale. The Land Rover 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 2015 Land Rover Range Rover in March 2015 at Land Rover of Paramus in New Jersey.
