With a price tag of $30,000 for the Tahoe unit alone, the AATA also decided to include the two $18,000 LPR systems installed. The Pana- sonic laptop is also around $5- 6,000. The new system was put to use later that day, when at 7:03 p.m. on September 21, 2017, "a 2003 White Toyota 4Runner was stolen from McDonalds in Parker, Ari- zona," stated QPD. "The victim re- ported the theft to CRIT (Colorado River Indian Tribes) Police Depart- ment. At 7:30 p.m., the Quartzsite Police Department located the vehi- cle, with the assistance of the newly acquired LPR (License Plate Rec- ognition) System that was obtained via grant by the Arizona Auto Theft Authority (AATA)." According to QPD, with the sup- port of the Arizona Department of Public Safety, local law enforcement offi cers conducted a high-risk stop at Cowell and Main Street, which ultimately led to the arrest. CRIT Police Department took lead and booked the subject into the La Paz Adult Detention Center on re- lated charges.
