NYPD and NYC mayor suggest Apple AirTags to fight vehicle theft

The New York Police Department and New York City Mayor Eric Adams asked residents to fight vehicle theft in the city by putting Apple AirTags in their cars today.

“The 21st century calls for 21st century policing,” NYPD Chief of Department Jeffrey Maddrey wrote on Twitter today. “AirTags in your car will help us recover your vehicle if it’s stolen. We’ll use our drones, our StarChase technology and good old fashion police work to safely recover your stolen car. Help us help you, get an AirTag.”
