This can't be the same person. The laptop was stolen from his house while he was away. This would mean it would be a burglary charge, not robbery.

This is a parody of an old TV show called "Dragnet". Each episode ended with a dramatic narrator reading something 99.9% similar to the comment you replied to. Same fixed format, everything.

Kids these days :) :)

still a burglary is when stuff is stolen when no one is there (as in the fine article). A robbery is when something is stolen from your person (like you are help up at gun point for you wallet).
