A woman had walked out to an empty driveway\u2014her Dodge Durango gone, even though she still had both sets of keys in her hand. Mission Hills PD had already entered the VIN as stolen in NCIC. I verified the entry and added the Durango to LoJack LE so responding units could see it live.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within minutes, detectives from TRAP were on the digital trail. The LoJack GPS location settled inside a commercial building\u2014not a lot of traffic in or out, just a signal saying the SUV was in there. The team held surveillance, played it patient, and when the vehicle didn\u2019t budge, they did it by the book: secured a judge\u2019s search warrant and went in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The building was unoccupied, but it was far from empty. Alongside the Durango, TRAP uncovered a stolen Corvette and three stolen Chevrolet Silverados\u2014more than $200,000 in stolen vehicles tucked under one roof. One signal had led us to a storage location for a larger operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Durango\u2019s LoJack system had been pre\u2011installed by Rydell Chrysler Dodge Jeep RAM in San Fernando. In this job, that matters; it turns a stolen report into actionable location intelligence officers can trust. This time, it helped TRAP pull multiple vehicles out of circulation and put thieves on notice.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><strong>Result<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Recovered: the Dodge Durango plus a stolen Corvette and three stolen Chevrolet Silverados, combined value exceeding $200,000. Warrant\u2011based entry, no\u2011cost LoJack LE tracking, and patient surveillance delivered the win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>See How LoJack LE Can Support Your Department<\/strong>&nbsp;<br><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every minute counts when recovering a stolen vehicle.
