New GPS Technology Helps Lynnwood Police Department Track Suspected Criminals
The Lynnwood Police Department in Washington has implemented a new technology to aid in tracking suspected criminals without engaging in pursuits, according to KING5.
The StarChase GPS System
The GPS technology utilizes a small box mounted on the front of police cruisers. It is designed to track suspects who fail to pull over.
Effortless Deployment
With the press of a button, an air compressor inside the cruiser’s engine bay propels a GPS tracker onto the back of a suspect’s vehicle. This system is known as StarChase.
