Men steal sheriff’s office golf cart – but don’t know it has GPS tracker, Florida cops say


The GPS from the golf cart started to send a signal back to the deputies as it moved, WBBH reported, and they tracked the cart to neighbouring Hendry County. — AFP

Three men are accused of stealing a golf cart from a Florida road, likely without realising it belonged to the local sheriff’s office, deputies said.

A Lee County Sheriff’s Office golf cart was “deployed” on a road when it was left unattended, according to a Nov 29 news release.
