Theft
Hey,

Last night, two individuals walked into my house and stole my father's laptop right off the table.. I live in the north end, off James street, and just want to ask if anyone sees somebody selling an HP Pavillion laptop (hp g61) on kijiji or something similar.. let me know.

The laptop itself isn't important, but it contains many pictures that weren't backed up of my father's relatives (some of which who are gone) that he has no replacement for. He's very distraught.

A bit of a long shot posting here, but hey..
Lock your doors, kids...

you can use google words or whatever their notifier is

set it to hamilton or toronto's version of kijiji and craigslist, type in model number and it will email you the second it crawls it

Never knew about that, thanks! Everything is resolved now though. A 'friend' of a friend of a person in the house was the culprit.
