Break-In at MN-DFL Headquarters, Laptop Stolen
Mar 18, 2007 -- 5:56 PM CDT
Joe Bodell
A laptop computer was stolen Saturday night or early Sunday morning from the office of the Minnesota DFL's Interim Communications Director, Nick Kimball.
The intruder smashed an exterior window and made off with the computer in lieu of other valuable electronics, including a video camera and a high-end digital camera. No other computers were taken, and at present it appears Kimball's laptop was the sole target of the robbery.
According to Kimball, it was an odd coincidence that the burglary occurred so soon after his transfer into the role of interim Communications Director and may have allowed the perpetrator to take advantage of the transition. However, Kimball emphasized that he knew of no one "with any legitimacy that would do something like this," and thus could not say whether he thought the robbery was a politically motivated crime. Although the stolen laptop's hard drive contains contact lists and information the DFL would prefer to maintain internally, Kimball said that the party's most sensitive information is stored on an unaffected internal server, and the security protocols in place on the laptop should prevent access to truly sensitive party information.
A police report was filed on the scene, and police officials indicated that an investigation of the incident is underway. Stay with Minnesota Monitor for coverage of this breaking story.
