In a recent follow-up post, the driver of the stolen car updated about the case and clarified that he couldn’t do so earlier as the police are still investigating the incident and his Facebook account was restricted from posting.
Tracking the Car using Apple AirTag
Zach mentioned in the post that his friend’s car has Apple AirTag installed. He did not mention this in the first post to prevent the thieves from being aware of their actions.
He was told that the car had gone missing at 1.20 pm when he headed back to the valet service point. Finding the situation unbelievable, the owner immediately requested the valet manager and called the police to report the incident.
Within 5-10 minutes, two PDRM officers arrived, questioned the valet attendants, and discovered that they did not have any identification on them.
Zach was then taken to the police station to file a report, while he also called his friends including the car owner to help track the car using the Apple AirTag. The AirTag indicated that the car was in the Subang area.
