Justin.tv has a purpose, catches burglar on camera

While Justin.tv seems to be pretty neat, personally I find watching most of those channels just about as boring as could be. However, this latest incident just goes to show that if you watch something, or in this case point a camera at something long enough, you will at least catch something useful or worthwhile.

Justin.tv user Chowda633 recently went into the hospital to have some ear surgery and low and behold he returned to find a few things missing from his apartment. Well, it turns out it was a good thing that he was a Justin.tv user, because whether he just forgot to turn his camera off, or possibly he was keeping it on just in case. He was able to catch the footage of the robbery, which happened to be found by another Justin.tv user. Now with footage in hand, he was able to further help the police. Lets just hope that he gets his stolen items back undamaged.
