The reality exceeds fiction. I have seen many police series and films, which solve cases in the most implausible way possible, but I have not yet seen what this news explains.

A woman kidnapped by her ex-husband has been located by the police thanks to the location shown on your Apple Watch LTE. This is also what the Apple smartwatch is for.

As reported today by the Fox chain of San Antonio, Selma, Texas police have been able to locate a woman who had been abducted by her ex-husband thanks to the location of his Apple Watch.

Police in Selma, northwest of San Antonio, Texas, received a call for help on December 16 from a woman who was being attacked at her home.

When the police arrived, they found only one girl who explained that her mother had been kidnapped by her ex-husband, Adalberto Longoria. They argued, he forced her into a truck and left without knowing where.

A quarter of an hour later, the mother called her daughter from her Apple Watch LTE explaining that she asked for help, that she was kidnapped and that they were going to hurt her. The call was simply cut off.

Quickly the officers who were with the brood They geolocated the Apple Watch, showing the location of the Hyatt Place Hotel parking lot. When the patrol arrived, they found the woman alone in a truck, since Adalberto had fled on foot when he heard the sirens.

Finally the next day it was captured by the police, and now faces a charge of kidnapping with violence.

So if you're going to buy an Apple Watch and you don't know whether to choose between GPS or LTE, you already have one more reason to keep the second. You never know when they can kidnap you ...
