The
owners of a 2008 Honda Accord reported the theft of their vehicle to Nashville
Police. Nashville Police verified the theft and entered the vehicle information entered into the state and
federal crime computers. This routine
action automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed
in the Honda Accord.
The Owner again reported the vehicle stolen to Nashville Metro Police. Again
this activated the silent LoJack signal from the Honda. A Helicopter from the
Tennessee Highway Patrol began tracking the signal less than twenty minutes
after it was entered as stolen. Ground Units from Nashville Metro were also
tracking the vehicle. The vehicle was
located and occupied by four individuals. The vehicle fled from Officers and
eventually all four jumped from the vehicle and fled on foot. The Helicopter
and ground units communicated together and one by one they captured all four
occupants from the stolen Honda.
This shows great work among Agencies working together and using the LoJack Trackers that are installed in their vehicles and Helicopters. The vehicle was recovered within an hour of the reported theft and returned to its owner.
The LoJack® System was installed in the Honda in October 2008 at Crest Honda in Nashville.
