A man stole a police cruiser but was apprehended shortly thereafter. Police used the GPS emitter and caught him within minutes. Henry Stancu and Precious Yutango from the Toronto Star wrote: Toronto police arrested a man and recovered a cruiser minutes after it was stolen from an accident scene in Weston. The low-profile traffic stealth car with a shotgun mounted between the two front seats was stopped on Weston Rd. near Lawrence Ave. W. when the theft occurred around 7:30 p.m. Using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology, police managed to locate the car within minutes. It was found behind stores on Weston Rd. at Wilby Cres., a short distance from the accident scene. A 36-year-old man was arrested. Police said the 12-gauge shotgun was locked in its harness and would have been difficult for anyone to remove. The car had minor damage to its front fender when it clipped a vehicle on a side street. Most police vehicles are equipped with GPS tracking systems, said Staff Sgt. Randy Smith. "It's an officer safety issue," he added. "We can locate our police cars. We can ensure we know where our cars are at all times." Source: ts
