This Honda Accord was stolen from the owner’s residence early in the morning. The Honda was left running to warm up in the driveway, located in the 10400 block of SE 244th Street in Kent. When the owner discovered the theft, the crime was immediately reported it to the Kent Police Department who verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Honda.

Less than twenty minutes later, a Kent PD officer picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Honda on the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft. The officer tracked the signal and located the Honda in the 20800 block of 108th Avenue SE in Kent. Three juvenile suspects in the Honda were taken into custody. A loaded handgun in the Honda was taken into evidence. The Honda did not appear to be damaged.

The Honda was processed for evidence and released to the owner.
The LoJack® System was installed in this Honda Accord in February 2006 at Honda of Fife in Washington.
