The owner of a 2007 Toyota Highlander contacted the Baltimore City Police Department to report their vehicle stolen from 1100 W. North Avenue in Baltimore City, Maryland. Baltimore City Police Radio dispatched an officer from the 1st District to investigate the incident. The officer quickly arrived on location, interviewed the complainant and surveyed the area for the subject vehicle. When the officer was unable to locate the vehicle, a stolen vehicle report was prepared. The officer then arranged for the stolen vehicle information to be entered into the state and federal crime computers, which automatically activated the LoJack® System concealed in the 2007 Toyota Highlander.

A short while later, officers from Baltimore City Police Department picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen 2007 Toyota Highlander with the LoJack Police Tracking Computers (PTC) installed in patrol vehicles and aircraft.  Following the directional and audible cues from the PTC, the officers tracked the vehicle to 1500 Retreat Street in the Penn-North area of Baltimore City, Maryland. At this location, officers observed the vehicle parked and unoccupied.  Officers recovered the stolen Toyota and notified the owner notified.

Approximate value of vehicle: $8,925.00

The LoJack® System was installed in the 2007 Toyota Highlander in March 2008 at CarMax, 7663 in Ellicott City, Maryland.
