Email that I sent to CMU PD

Hi,

I am a CMU student and I would like to report a crime incident that has happened around 12:45AM on Saturday 29, 2009.

On my way to my apartment on Amberson Avenue, I was robbed at gunpoint; actors stealing my wallet, forcefully demanding my PIN and getting my phone. After the incident, I called 911 and Pittsburgh PD showed up.

Fortunately, I was able to track my phone online using its GPS function; I was able to see the location of the phone on a map. With my friends, we tracked the phone to North Versailles and relayed that information to Pittsburgh PD and North Versailles PD.

Ultimately, we tracked the phone to an Eat 'n Park restaurant in North Versailles. With that information, NVPD caught the actors there. Afterwards I identified the actors in a line-up. I have received my phone, my wallet and most of the cash in my wallet.

Also North Versailles PD found the actors in a Dodge silver minivan with a black handgun (which was actually a BB gun). That descriptions seems fitting with the alert from August 16.

Pittsburgh PD told me that CMU PD would be notified about this but I wanted to make sure correct authorities are notified.

Thanks.

Edit I wasn't the one who remembered that my iPhone could be tracked online or actually doing the relaying of information to the cops. If you know who I am, you probably have a good guess who it was.
