WICHITA, Kan. (AP) - Wichita police have released a webcam photo from a stolen laptop in a bid to track down the laptop thief.

The laptop was among several items taken in a theft Feb. 19.

The Wichita Eagle reports (https://bit.ly/1jE01CW ) the laptop’s owner used the laptop’s built-in webcam a few days after the theft to remotely take a picture of a person using the computer.



Wichita police spokesman Capt. Doug Nolte says police have posted the photo on Facebook. He says police are hoping someone will recognize the man using the stolen laptop and call police.
