The owner of a 2003 Nissan Altima 4-door sedan discovered their vehicle missing on Sunday afternoon. The owner 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.

Later that afternoon while on routine patrol a Miami-Dade Police Department officer picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Altima on their on-board LoJack Police Tracking Computer (PTC). The officer began tracking the stolen Altima by following the directional and audible cues on the PTC screen. The officer, along with their backup, located the Altima in the 10300 block of S.W. 179th Street. The Altima 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 2003 Nissan Altima in February 2003 at Maroone Nissan of Kendall in Perrine, Florida.
