    Stolen Tools - WoodCraft Catches Them!

    INDIANAPOLIS -- After five burglaries at his store this summer, Chris Rowland decided to plant Global Positioning System devices in some of his merchandise.

    The decision paid off with burglary No. 6.


    Someone broke into the Woodcraft store in the Castleton area on Friday morning and stole woodworking tools. Rowland had placed GPS devices in some of the packaging.

    That is pretty clever, but it is also kinda freaky to think of the different ways someone could use a gps system for making mischief

    Good for him. Most of the time they only get caught when somebody dimes them out. This guy probably acted alone. Nobody to squeal on you .

    That's pretty slick. I hope they catch the guy.
