The burglary victim contacted police after they noticed the discreet tracking device was pinging at a street in Ballarat North at 3.30am yesterday.
Police launched an investigation and using the information from the coin-sized $45 device and searched a home on that street.
The suspected stolen goods were allegedly found inside, along with ammunition and a gun.
A male and female were arrested.
The pair, aged 16 and 18, are currently speaking with police.
The AirTags have proven useful in recovering stolen property.
Fortunately for Tait, he’d attached an AirTag to several of his items.
And when he activated the search function, it pinged from a room in the hotel he was staying in.
Tait called the police and the alleged offenders were arrested.
