The owners of a Ford F-350 discovered that their company truck had been stolen from their residence during the night.  The theft was reported to the Denver Police Department and a police officer verified the theft then had the vehicle information entered into the state and federal crime computers.  This routine action automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Ford.

A short while later officers with both Denver PD and Aurora PD were picking up the silent LoJack signals from the stolen truck with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTCs) that are installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft. 

Following the directional and audible cues from their PTCs officers with the Aurora Police Department tracked and located the unoccupied Ford in the 900 block of North Uvalda Street.

The owners were called to the scene and the truck released to them.

The LoJack® System was installed in the Ford F-350 in September 2006 at Butt Ford Parker, Parker Colorado at the request of the first owner of the truck.  As the LoJack doesn’t expire, it was available to assist law enforcement and the current owners when needed 13-years later.
