PlayStation thieves located through GPS


A $1 million AUD (approx. US $880,000) heist of PlayStation 2 consoles in Australia was foiled by the power of GPS. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, a truck fitted with a GPS tracking device and containing 4,704 PS2s was stolen. Police used the tracking device (and magic -- no, not really) to locate the stolen truck and consoles.

Four men have been charged for the theft. Let that be a lesson to you would-be robbers and delinquents: leave it to the pros.
