Ontario thieves are taking advantage of the good weather – luckily Boomerang trackers are right behind them! Several recent tracking operations in Ontario were of particular note:

Equipment thieves foiled
Thieves drove off with over $100,000 in equipment from a work site in Woodbridge, Ontario including two recent-model CASE 90 machines and a Roller. Boomerang Security Central was advised as soon as the theft was noticed and our tracking team was on the trail. Within an hour, all three pieces of equipment were back in the hands of local police authorites and the thieves arrested.

Home break-in with a happy ending
A home break-in in Toronto resulted with the thieves stealing the keys to the owner’s BMW 325 – and then his car. Thanks to the rapid response of Boomerang Tracking’s in-house tracking team, the thief was stopped across town, much to the relief of its owner. Not only did the owner get his car back, but all the stolen valuables from the break-in!

Two trailers, two provinces, two arrests
A stolen Peterbilt from St-Zotique, Quebec led our tracking team to Lindsay, Ontario, where the $70,000 piece of equipment was recovered along with two trailers with a value of $40,000 each, as well as a cache of heavy-duty steel cable worth an estimated $100,000. The trailers were registered in the province of Alberta. Two arrests were made at the scene.

To date, the Boomerang Tracking System has been instrumental in the recovery of over 3,300 stolen assets valued at some $166 million including incidental recoveries. For more details on the Boomerang tracking devices, visit www.boomerangtracking.com.
