The owner of a 2009 Dodge Charger contacted the Suisun City Police Department to report their vehicle stolen. The owner advised the vehicle stolen from in front of his girlfriend’s residence. The Suisun City 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 2009 Dodge Charger.
A
short while later, investigators with the Solano County Auto Theft Task Force
were working in the city of Suisun City,
when they were alerted to the stolen Dodge Charger 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 vehicle was tracked to a
residential area at Pelican Way near Shrike Court, where it was found parked
and unoccupied, at the curb.
Surveillance was established on the vehicle but the suspect(s) did not
return.
The stolen Dodge Charger was recovered by the Solano County Auto Task Force and
the owner responded to the scene to retrieve his vehicle.
The LoJack® System was installed in the 2009 Dodge Charger in September 2016, at John L. Sullivan Chevrolet, in Roseville, CA.
