The estate that late Apple chief and tech visionary Steve Jobs called home has been burglarized.
The residence, which is located in Palo Alto, California, was burglarized on July 17. That's according to the official word from Santa Clara County Deputy District Attorney Tom Flattery.
On Tuesday, the San Jose Mercury News was first to report the break-in, a burglary that is being called random and not specifically targeted at the Steve Jobs estate. More than $60,000 worth of "computers and personal items" were reportedly taken.
"The best we can tell is it was totally random," Flattery revealed, adding that a 35-year old Alameda man named Kariem McFarlin was arrested as a suspect August 2nd in connection to the robbery.
Flattery was tight-lipped about the case, declining to discuss the chain of events that led to McFarlin's arrest. But he revealed that McFarlin was likely unaware of the home's significance.
