Yes, Your Work-Issued Laptop Is Probably The Kind Of Thing You Should Remove From Your Vehicle At Night

An interesting 24 plot twist reveals itself on Staten Island:

A crook broke into a Department of Environmental Protection employee’s vehicle on Staten Island and swiped a laptop computer with a disk containing information about the city’s water-distribution system, police said yesterday.

Not to worry, though — there’s nothing sensitive on the computer, because if there were, there wouldn’t be an article in the Post about . . . never mind, don’t go there:

Sources said the information was not classified or confidential and the car apparently was not singled out, since other vehicles on the block, Devens Street in Westerleigh, were also burglarized.
