A Little Identity Theft Irony

I found an interesting story titled Officer Finds Own Cable Bill After Making ID Theft Arrest.

Apparently after months of searching, Fort Worth, Texas, identity theft task force officers tracked down and arrested Timeika Walker on four outstanding warrants. The woman had been profiled on America's Most Wanted.

The great part of this story is that an officer searching the home after her arrest found one of his cable bills. She had probably stolen it in an attempt to find personal information to use for identity theft. The article doesn't make it clear whether the officer had actually been a victim of Walker's identity theft activities, or if she just had his cable bill. Regardless, it seems like a little poetic justice.
