A Florida man is accused of hiding a tracking device on his ex-girlfriend’s vehicle while she had an active injunction for protection against him, then using the device to follow her movements around Cape Coral.

Christopher Concepcion, 48, was arrested Sept. 7 after police found a black tracker concealed inside the driver-side mirror housing of the woman’s Jeep, according to Gulf Coast News Now, citing court documents.

The woman told police that Concepcion later called her, threatened to kill her, and said he had put the tracker on her vehicle so he could find her if she left, according to the affidavit described by the outlet.

Concepcion denied installing the device or stalking her. But police reported finding a connection between the tracker and his Google account after searching his phone.

A Phone Warning

The first warning surfaced Sept. 3 while the woman’s daughter was driving the Jeep. Her phone alerted her that an unknown tracking device appeared to be traveling with her.

While the daughter was at work, Concepcion allegedly sent the woman multiple text messages asking why she was at a Cape Coral school. Court documents described by Gulf Coast News Now say he also claimed he could see the vehicle and mentioned that the daughter’s wallet was inside.

The woman received another tracker alert Sept. 6 while leaving the courthouse.

In a 911 call aired by the station, she told a dispatcher she had discovered a tracker on her vehicle. She later told the station that the situation left her devastated and that she believed she could have been killed.

Behind The Mirror

Detectives located the device inside the Jeep’s driver-side mirror housing and seized it.

A search of Concepcion’s cellphone reportedly showed that the tracker was connected to his Google account and assigned to a vehicle.

Concepcion disputed the accusation. He told police he knew where the bright-red Jeep was because its color made it easy for him to recognize.

He faces a charge of invading privacy by installing or using a tracking device to commit a dangerous crime. His next Lee County court appearance is scheduled for Oct. 12.

All parties are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
