After Eliza Webb of Seattle, Washington learned her car was burglarized and the thief had left a cell phone behind, she decided to bypass the police and instead call the suspect’s mother. Webb was headed to work and noticed that her car was a mess. Webb told KOMO 4 News, “Then I looked at the driver's side seat and found a black cell phone. It's not a cell phone I recognize, and then I started looking closer and we had some missing items."
Piecing the evidence together, Webb figured out that the phone belonged to whoever broke into her car. She decided to use the cell to call the suspect’s mom and request her sunglasses and running shoes back. "I said, 'This is a very uncomfortable phone call to make. I have your son's phone and I'm missing some things out of my car and I think they might be two related items,' and she was devastated,” Webb recounted. From the call, the theft victim learned that the phone belonged to a 19-year-old man and she went to recover her items from the thief’s home. Webb explained, "We knocked on the door and he answered in just sort of a defeated look. He looked like he had been crying." The teen confessed that he and his friends got drunk and broke into at least 10 cars that night.
