LoJack System Helps Denver Police Department Recover Stolen Dodge Ram 2500

The
owner of a 2009 Dodge Ram 2500 was at a building material and lumber yard when
he discovered that his truck, with a construction trailer attached, had been stolen. He contacted the Denver Police Department and
a police officer verified the theft. The
officer had the vehicle information entered
into the state and federal crime computers and it is this routine action that automatically
activated the LoJack® System concealed in the Dodge
truck.
A short while later a Denver police officer on routine patrol picked up the
silent LoJack homing signals with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTC)
installed in his patrol vehicle. Following
the directional and audible cues from their PTC the officer promptly tracked
the vehicle to the 500 block of South Holly Street. The truck was freshly abandoned and the
trailer missing.
This
officer has made 4 such LoJack recoveries in just over one-month.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Dodge Ram 2500 at the request of the
current owner in 2009 when he bought the truck new in Pueblo, Colorado.
