On January 4, 2012, a Pomona Police Department Auto Theft Detective was on patrol when his onboard LoJack Police Tracking Computer began to pick up a signal. The detective learned that the signal was coming from a stolen 1999 Ford Expedition that had been entered as stolen by Los Angeles County Sheriff Temple Station Deputies approximately 15 minutes

On the morning of January 2, 2012, the owner of a 2005 GMC Yukon contacted the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department’s Century Station to report the vehicle stolen. LASD officers filed a stolen vehicle report and had information about the stolen Yukon entered into the state and federal crime computers. This routine police action automatically activated the LoJack

Just five minutes after the LoJack system was activated on a stolen 2007 Yamaha YZR motorcycle, the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department’s Air-7, Parks Bureau police and the California Highway Patrol tracked the signal to a self-storage complex. They gained access to the complex and located and observed one male suspect stripping the victim’s stolen motorcycle.
