The
owner of a 2013 Nissan Sentra contacted the Pembroke Pines Police Department to
report that his vehicle had been stolen.
The Pembroke Pines Police verified the theft and had the vehicle information entered into the state and
federal crime computers. This routine
action automatically activated the LoJack® System
concealed in the Nissan.
A short while later officers from the auto theft task force and the Opa-Locka
Police Department picked up the silent LoJack signals from the stolen Nissan
with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTCs) that are installed in patrol
vehicles and aircraft. Following the
directional and audible cues from their PTCs, the officers tracked the vehicle
to 14900 block of NW 22nd court. The vehicle was recovered and
returned to the owner.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Nissan Sentra in January of 2013 at Royal
Palm Nissan, in West Palm Beach, Florida.
