A laptop computer containing floor plans for Trump Tower, information about the Hillary Clinton email investigation and other national security information was stolen from a Secret Service agent's vehicle in Brooklyn, police sources told the Daily News. ... Authorities have been frantically searching for the laptop since it was stolen Thursday morning.
Some items stolen along with the laptop including coins and a black bag with the Secret Service insignia on it were later recovered. ... But the laptop, along with other documents described as "sensitive," were still being sought.
The thief stepped out of a car, possibly an Uber, on a street in Bath Beach and stole the laptop from the agent's vehicle, which was parked in the driveway of her home. ... He was then seen on video walking away from the scene with a backpack.
The agent reported the laptop contained floor plans for Trump Tower, evacuation protocols and information regarding the investigation of Hillary Clinton's private email server. ... The agent also told investigators that while nothing about the White House or foreign leaders is stored on the laptop, the information on there could compromise national security.

Well, that's just the icing on the cake, isn't it?

1) The thief is totally clueless as to what he has in his possession, assuming he hasn't traded it for crack.
2) No, he isn't.
