OK, don’t want to harp on the crime thing too much, but this one is creepy. Ella writes:

Just wanted to let the community know that  our house was broken in to tonight around the 43rd/interlake block. A macbook pro, cell phone, and our mail was stolen. A roommate was home in her room sleeping and on the thief’s way out (or in to her room to steal more things) they opened the door and said “boo!” and then jetted out.
