Meanwhile, he returned to his house and discovered that there had been a break-in. The burglar had been trying to sell the discs back to their original owner! Unsurprisingly, he pleaded guilty ‘once the case reached court.

A few weeks later, the boy was looking at Google Street View when he discovered a photo of him and the two boys which must have been taken just before the crime.
