Burglar startled to find somebody home in Allston apartment

Something about this story doesn't seem right. Would like to know more

I think you mean "But that was not his last journey into the apartment"...unless he time traveled?

Security tracking software is cheap and easy to use to locate your mobile device in case of theft or misplacing. I use Lookout Mobile for my mobile phone and ESET on my laptop.

I don't understand how a person could possibly get back in unless the window was left unlocked after she left.

Probably left the employer lap top in a bar and is now trying to avoid the consequences

I'm the victim who had the computer stolen- I was the only one not home at the time. Two of my roommates were asleep in their rooms, and one was awake, in the kitchen (right outside my bedroom) eating breakfast. The a-hole came in through my window, locked my closed bedroom door from the inside, and grabbed my computer and my backpack. He then went back out the window, and was in the process of breaking into my roommate's room from the outside when she walked in on him with her window and screen open, standing outside. She didn't realize that I had been robbed first because she just thought that maybe I had locked my door on my way out to work in the morning. It wasn't until I assured them that no, I did not lock my door, that my other roommate climbed through my window and we realized that my computer was gone and he had hit up my bedroom first and locked my door from the inside. While the detective was here, they got a call that there were two other break-ins reported in the neighborhood- one on Long Ave, the next street over. But seriously, why would I make up a story like this? I don't have renter's insurance and I'm most likely never going to see the computer again. Come on.
