A Miami-Dade police officer has been charged with stalking his ex-girlfriend using Apple AirTags secretly installed in her car to track her whereabouts.
Javier Magarin, 27, a patrol officer in the Northwest District, has been relieved of duty, the department said on Wednesday. Two weeks ago, the department charged him with misdemeanor stalking and illegal use of a tracking device – investigators say one of the AirTags found in her car was registered to his personal email.
