UPDATE:  POLICE GOT HIM! ActiveRain - Can We Make Someone Famous?      At 5am this morning, this "gentleman" decided it would be a good idea to rob a few businesses within our building.  Unfortunately, we were a target.  He broke in, stole several personal items from employees (including cash and bags) and laptops.  Thankfully, the laptops are the equivalent of expensive bricks at this point since our security measures allow us to remotely wipe them clean.  So there's not a potential for a lot of damage, but I'm sure those who lost personal items and cash (one of my colleagues had a substantial amount of cash stolen) would love to see this person meet up with the police very soon.      Police are involved, and thanks again to our security measures, we've got a pretty nice shot of the gu...
