Police in Dallas, Texas set up a "bait car" with a GPS tracking device so they could catch a thief. Unfortunately, the GPS device failed and the thief is long gone.
Police in Texas have lost a car intended to catch thieves.
Known as a "bait car," police install special equipment in a vehicle and leave it around for a thief to steal.
However, Dallas police say the GPS location unit failed, and now the car's gone without a trace.
Lt. Rick Watson of the Dallas Police Department tells the Associated Press, "The GPS system tells us where they are at and how fast they are going."
"We want the car stolen. Yes, we do. But, then we want it recovered with the individual that stole it."
Either the thief was a tech expert or the police forgot to test the "special equipment" before setting the bait car out for thieves. (via Gizmodo -> The Raw Feed)
