The owners of a 2007 Infiniti G35 contacted the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen. The owner had allowed an acquaintance to borrow the Infiniti to go shopping and the acquaintance refused to bring it back. After several days the owner contacted the police.
A police officer verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Infiniti.
A short while later officers from both the Las Vegas Metropolitan PD and the North Las Vegas Police Department as well as troopers from the Nevada Highway Patrol picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Infiniti with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTCs) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft.
Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the officers and troopers tracked the Infiniti to the intersection of Jones and Oquendo where they found the Infiniti abandoned. The Infiniti was recovered and returned back to the owner. An arrest warrant was issued for the suspect and he was later arrested for the theft.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Infiniti G35 in October 2006 at Infiniti of Mission Viejo in California.
