A carpenter in Northern Virginia, frustrated by repeated thefts of his tools, used GPS devices and AirTags to track his stolen power tools. His efforts, after being targeted twice, led Howard County and Maryland investigators to uncover millions of dollars worth of pilfered goods stored in various facilities. The carpenter's initiative was instrumental in the recovery of approximately 15,000 stolen items.
