The
owner of a 2018 Toyota Corolla contacted the Baltimore City Police
Department to report that their vehicle was stolen from the area of Unit N.
Aisquith Street in Baltimore City, Maryland. Baltimore City Police
Radio dispatched an officer from the 2nd 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 2018 Toyota Corolla.
A short while later, officers from Baltimore City Police Department picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen 2018
Toyota Corolla 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 officers tracked the vehicle
to the 200 S. Eden Street in the Inner Harbor East area of Baltimore City,
Maryland. At this location, officers observed the vehicle parked and
unoccupied. The undamaged vehicle was recovered by police and the owner
notified.
Approximate value of vehicle: $20,625.00
The LoJack® System was installed in the 2018 Toyota Corolla in February, 2018 at Jerry’s Toyota in Fullerton, Maryland
