GPS darts can be deployed from the front grille of a police cruiser, or from a handheld launcher.
A split-second decision is made easy, as all it takes is one dart to affix a GPS-equipped tag on a vehicle.
"We'll have the ability to track that vehicle with our map, coordinate resources with other agencies and surrounding officers, and make the apprehension on that vehicle without having to endanger the lives of those around," Oak Brook police Detective Sgt. Jason Wood explained. We are further told the tech has been a huge help in the Oak Brook Police Department's partnerships with departments in Hinsdale, Villa Park, and Chicago.
"We get organized retail theft crews coming in here," he said."These guys have been able to get up next to the vehicle in an undercover car, roll down the window and tag that vehicle without the bad guy even knowing." "It's a great opportunity to be able to back off of a dangerous high-speed pursuit and let the technology go to work and do the tracking for you," Strockis said."Pursuits by their nature are dangerous. Dangerous for the officer.
"A lot of agencies that use this technology don't want to talk about it publicly, because it's tactics," he said.
