[fpb]

A house thief in Albano Laziale, near Rome, logged in onto his own Facebook account from the computer of the flat he was robbing. He is now spending time as a guest of the Italian taxpayer, meditating on the ability of the police to follow up electronic connections. The unusually lucky house-owner has been reunited with a good part of the loot.
