The owner of a 2015 Toyota Corolla 4-door sedan parked their car on the street. When they returned approximately an hour later they discovered their Toyota missing. They contacted the Miami Beach Police Department to report their Toyota 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, which automatically activates the LoJack® System concealed in the Toyota.

 

Later that morning, while on routine patrol, a Miami Beach PD officer picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Corolla on their on-board LoJack Police Tracking Computer (PTC), that are installed in law enforcement patrol vehicles, helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft. The officer began tracking the stolen Toyota by following the directional and audible cues on their PTC’s screen. The officer, along with their backup, located the 4-door sedan. The Toyota was recovered, removed from state and federal crime information computer systems by the entering agency and towed to the police impound yard for safekeeping.

 

The LoJack® System was installed in the 2015 Toyota Corolla in March 2015 at Palm Beach Toyota in Florida.
