Texas Man Uses AirTag to Find His Truck

Just a few weeks ago, a man from Texas had his truck stolen, but thankfully his AirTag came to the rescue.

According to what a police spokesperson told local news station KENS, the San Antonio man managed to locate his Chevy Silverado at a southeast side shopping center with the help of his Apple AirTags.

When the man arrived, he called the police, but instead of waiting for help to arrive, he approach the truck on his own. That’s when he found the suspected thief inside, and, following a verbal confrontation where the other man showed him a gun, the truck owner shot him dead in what he claimed was self-defense. The alleged thief was rushed to the hospital but unfortunately passed away later that afternoon.

“If your vehicle is stolen, I know it’s frustrating,” San Antonio Police spokesman Nick Soliz said. “But please do not take matters into your own hands like this.”
