Vehicle Recovery Narrative
Some recoveries are quiet. The owner called it in; Denver PD put the vehicle into NCIC. The LoJack unit—installed by the selling dealer—began feeding coordinates to the LoJack LE app.
Officers followed the data to an apartment complex. The Cadillac was backed into a space, locked and unoccupied. The temporary tag was gone. The scene was processed for evidence, and the car was towed to secure storage.
The owner got the call every victim wants: your car’s been found, intact. Speed and coordination did the rest.
Tactical Takeaways for LE Partners
- Owner activated LoJack through the call center; DPD used the LE app for real‑time location.
- Vehicle located backed into a space, locked/unoccupied, temp tag missing—processed on scene.
- Tow to secure storage and owner notification followed department procedure.
