Burglars caught by stolen laptop

On April 27th, two burglars broke into Kait Duplaga's apartment in White Plains, New York, and stole about $5,000 worth of electronic goods, including two flat-screen TVs and two laptops. As soon as Kait and her two roommates got home that night, they reported the burglary to the police. Unfortunately the police couldn't find anything to help them catch the burglars.

Nine days later, a friend of Kait's contacted her because his computer showed that she was logged onto the internet. Kait used another computer to go online and saw that someone was using her laptop to do some shopping.

Then Kait, who works in an Apple computer store, remembered that she could access the camera in her laptop using remote technology. At first she could only see an empty room, but then two men came in and started using the computer again. Kait then took photos of the men before they realised what was happening. One of her roommates recognised the men as friends of friends who were at a party at their apartment a few weeks earlier. Kait immediately contacted the police and gave them the photos and names of the men. The next day the burglars were arrested and the police found nearly all of the stolen things in their apartment.

"It clearly makes our job a lot easier when the victim can take a picture of the person using the stolen property," said Daniel Jackson of the White Plains Department of Public Safety. "It was definitely a very smart use of the technology."

The burglars took several expensive items from Kait’s flat.
