A Santa Barbara County woman who had been a victim of mail theft used an Apple Airtag to help authorities identify and arrest two alleged thieves.
Two people suspected of mail theft have been arrested after a Santa Barbara County woman whose mail had been stolen used an Apple Airtag to track the suspects, authorities said.
"When they arrived, deputies learned that the victim had items stolen from her post office box recently, so she mailed herself a package that included an AirTag locator device," the statement said, adding that the woman's mail was again stolen Monday morning."It is important to note that the victim did not attempt to contact the suspects on her own," the Sheriff's Office said.
The suspects are identified as 27-year-old Virginia Franchessca Lara of Santa Maria and 37-year-old Donald Ashton Terry of Riverside.
