The
owner of a 2019 Chevrolet Colorado pickup contacted the Redding Police Department
to report that their vehicle had been stolen.
The owner advised the vehicle was taken from in front of their residence
in the 1900 block of Chestnut Street. The Redding Police Department verified
the theft and entered the vehicle
information into the state and federal crime computers, which automatically
activated the LoJack® System concealed in the 2019 Chevrolet
Colorado.
A short time later, a Redding Police Officer was alerted to the stolen
Chevrolet Colorado by means of the silent LoJack signal from the stolen vehicle
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 stolen Chevrolet Colorado was
tracked and was found parked unoccupied, at Rose Avenue and Eureka Way.
The undamaged Chevrolet Colorado was recovered by the Redding Police Department
and the vehicle was released to the very happy owner at the scene. The vehicle had been purchased with the
LoJack Stolen Vehicle Recovery System installed just days earlier.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Chevrolet Colorado in April 2019, at Lithia Chevrolet, in Redding, CA.
