Grow-Op Uncovered Thanks to GPS Tracking Technology
Theft and Drug Thugs Get Busted
More Reasons to Get a Real Job
Source Acquired Via Fox Business, May 14, 2010, Monroe, Michigan – Recently, business owner Dale Brunt found out how valuable a GPS tracking device is when one of his golf carts was stolen from his place of business. Just days before the cart was stolen, Brunt equipped the car with a GPS tracking device. Police were able to track down the missing cart, and they also uncovered a Michigan grow-up.
Tracking Outdoor Equipment Pays Off
Once Brunt discovered that his 2008 Club Car golf cart had been stolen, he immediately contacted authorities. With the help of the GPS tracking company that issued the GPS tracking device, authorities were able to locate the stolen cart. What they didn’t expect to find was a home filled with marijuana plants and other stolen items. Purchasing a GPS tracking device for the stolen golf cart was “the perfect way to solve (his) problem.”
While stealing a golf cart may seem rather unusual, these vehicles are actually stolen on a regular basis. Golf carts are relatively easy to steal, since most states do not require golf cart owners to register these vehicles. Further, selling a golf cart on the black market is easy to do, since many people are willing to pay top dollar for a nicely equipped cart. In this case, Dale Brunt made a wise decision when he installed a GPS tracking device on his 2008 Club Car – a top-end cart.
Brunt has now equipped his entire golf cart fleet with GPS tracking devices. Should anyone attempt to steal a golf cart from his property now, Brunt will be immediately alerted via text message. Many vehicle owners around the world are following Brunt’s lead by equipping various vehicles with GPS trackers. These tracking devices are largely undetectable, though they will help recover any stolen vehicle quickly.
The Best Integration of GPS
While GPS trackers were once used only to track criminals and keep tabs on children, many business owners are now beginning to see that there’s a real advantage to purchasing a GPS tracking system. The cost of a GPS tracking system is well worth it considering the cost of replacing a stolen vehicle. In Brunt’s case, the golf cart in-question may never have been found if it weren’t for the GPS tracking device that he installed.
Police are still investigating those involved with the grow-op that was uncovered, though news about this operation is expected to surface sometime within the near future. For now, Dale Brunt (and others who have read about his story) is simply happy that he thought to install a GPS tracker on his prized cart.
