The owner of a 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 contacted the Fremont Police Department to report that their vehicle had been stolen. The vehicle was stolen from the parking lot of a gym in the 46000 block of Landing Parkway
The
Fremont Police verified the theft and entered
the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which
automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed
in the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8.
A short time later, officers from Antioch Police Department were directed by
the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Jeep Cherokee with the LoJack Police
Tracking Computers (PTC) which are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft. Following the directional and audible cues
from the PTC, the officers tracked the stolen vehicle to the area of West
4th Street and “M” Street, where they found the vehicle unoccupied.
The vehicle was recovered and towed/stored to be released to the owner.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8 in April 2015, at Love Field Chrysler-Jeep- Dodge, in Dallas, TX.
