In order to crack down on car theft, Washington, D.C., distributed Apple AirTag to residents for free.

CTOnews.com, Nov. 4 (Xinhua)-- Muriel Muriel Bowser, mayor of Washington, D.C., signed a new plan on Wednesday to give free Apple AirTag to residents in communities with a high frequency of car thefts, so that they can track their vehicles after they are stolen.

Bowzer said that in the next few months, three related activities will be held. If you want to apply for a residence certificate, you need to provide an address for the police service area, and the police will help residents "install" AirTag in their cars.

Acting Police Commissioner Pamela Smith (Pamela Smith) explained: "usually, individuals involved in such criminal activities often commit a number of crimes, which can help us fight crime."
