Hospitality Industry Security Risks: Texas Hotel Guests Have Laptop And iPad Stolen From Room; GPS Tracking Feature Leads Police To Thieves

“…Police say hotel guests returned to their room to find their key card no longer worked. Once they had a new key, they discovered someone had stolen a laptop computer, wallet, a cell phone and the iPad from the room…”

Officers were able to track down an iPad stolen from a room at the Omni Bayfront Hotel to a home on the southside of town early Sunday morning.

The owner of the iPad used a tracking feature on the device to let officers know they could find the iPad at an address on High Meadow Drive. Police say when they arrived at the home they could see people inside and marijuana in plain view.

The people inside refused to answer the door for police at first, but someone inside did answer the victim’s phone when police called.
