LoJack System Helps Baltimore City Police Department Recover Stolen Chevrolet

The owner of a 2007 Chevrolet Silverado contacted the Baltimore City Police Department to report that their vehicle was stolen from the area of 100 W. Clement Street in the Federal Hill area of Baltimore City, Maryland. Baltimore City Police Radio dispatched an officer from the 9^th 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 Chevrolet Silverado.

A short while later, officers from Baltimore City Police Department picked up the silent LoJack signal from the stolen 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 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 2700 block Herkimer Street in the Morrell Park 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: $7,675.00

The LoJack® System was installed in the 2007 Chevrolet Silverado in September, 2006 at JBA Chevrolet in Glen Burnie, Maryland.
