The
owner of a 2007 Volvo XC9 contacted the Dallas Police Dept to report that his
vehicle had been stolen. The owner was warming up his vehicle in his
driveway unattended and when he returned found it missing. The Dallas Police Dept verified the theft and entered the vehicle information into the state and
federal crime computers which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Volvo.
A short while later officers from the
Dallas Police Dept picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen Volvo
with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTC) that are installed in patrol
vehicles and aircraft. Following the
directional and audible cues from the PTC, the officers tracked the stolen
Volvo to the 1700 block of S.St Augustine where they found it abandoned in a
parking lot. The car stereo was
missing.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Volvo XC9 in July 2007 at Volvo
of Richardson in Richardson, TX
