Washington DC will hand out free AirTags to residents to track stolen cars in light of the rising levels of crime.
Mayor Muriel Bowser announced in a press conference that residents living in areas with the highest reports of carjackings will receive a free tracking device.
Free AirTags will be distributed at three different events held from November 7-9 and residents will have to show proof of residency and an address that matches the eligible areas.
Bowser said at the press conference: 'These tags and tiles will help MPD recover stolen vehicles and hold people accountable.
'The word will also get out this is not a community to come in and steal cars.'
