This Jeep Cherokee was stolen during the night from the owner’s residence located in the 2300 block of 3rd Avenue in Seattle. When the theft was discovered, it was immediately reported to the Seattle Police Department who verified the report and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Jeep.
Just fourteen minutes later, a Seattle PD officer picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Honda on the LoJack Police Tracking Computer (PTC) installed in his patrol car. Following directional and audible cues on the PTC, the car was located at Broadway Court and East Union Street. The Jeep was abandoned and apparently not damaged.
The LoJack® System was installed in this Jeep Cherokee in November 2016 when it was purchased as a used vehicle at Enumclaw Chrysler Jeep Dodge in Washington.
