A family vacation took a detour for a Miami family after their luggage was stolen while traveling for Christmas break, but thanks to technology, they were able to recover their stolen property.
“I wanted justice,” Catherine Gavino told Queen City News on Tuesday.
Gavino and her family were traveling from the Miami area to the Carolinas through Charlotte Douglas International Airport in North Carolina, where the crime took place.
When the family landed in Charlotte on Friday afternoon, they told FOX 46 Charlotte that they were unable to find one of their suitcases at the baggage claim.
However, thanks to Catherine’s new Apple AirTag, the search began for the stolen luggage.
Gavino said when she pulled up her cellphone, the AirTag hidden inside her parents’ luggage showed it was on Interstate 85 and on its way west toward Gastonia.
The Gavino family then gathered the rest of their bags, picked up their rental car and began to follow the AirTag to a neighborhood, but said they were unable to find the exact location.
According to Gavino, AirTag had stopped displaying its location after a certain point.
The Gavino family canceled the search, but resumed it on Christmas Day, in hopes of having better luck.
After dropping off family members back at the airport, Gavino checked her AirTag location one more time, which revealed a location for a house in Gastonia.
According to Gavino, after contacting the police, she not only found the house, but also their missing luggage along with another suitcase of a different victim whose luggage was stolen from the airport.
Gavino told Queen City News that Gastonia police informed her that “someone else called with the same issue. And they also had an AirTag.”
Once her family’s luggage was recovered, to their dismay, almost everything was gone.
“Police believe they may have sold the clothes for money, who knows,” Catherine explained. “These are my parents, coming to the mountains for a North Carolina view, so for this to happen made me sad, which was all the more reason to go after them … I wouldn’t have found them without this AirTag.”
According to police records, the suspect was arrested and charged with multiple theft crimes, including a drug charge, and is being held on a $10,000 bond.
The Gastonia Police Department did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
