Yahoo Autos GPS tracker leads Michigan police to a semi loaded with stolen cars
Michigan State Police officers say a GPS tracker led them to a moving truck loaded with stolen vehicles, including a handful of patrol cars. Law enforcement officials also discovered about $10,000 in cash in the truck's cab.
Officers received a 911 call from someone reporting a stolen car at about 10 p.m. on October 21, according to The Detroit News, and the owner told them the vehicle was equipped with a GPS tracker. The caller accessed the device's coordinates and told officers the missing car was moving on a freeway near Van Buren Township, which is between Romulus and Ypsilanti in the southeastern part of the state. Police prepared to intercept it.
