The owners of a Honda Civic contacted the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office and reported that their vehicle had been stolen. A deputy responded and verified the theft and had the vehicle information entered into the state and federal crime computers. This routine action on the part of law enforcement automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Honda.

A short time later troopers with the Colorado State Patrol picked up the silent LoJack signal coming from the stolen Honda with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTCs) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft.

Following the directional and audible cues from the PTCs, these troopers tracked the Honda to an apartment house parking lot in the southern part of Loveland. The Honda was unoccupied and was apparently undamaged.

The LoJack® System was installed in the Honda Civic in July 2000 at AutoNation Honda in Hollywood, California.
