Woman's Webcam Catches Burglars in Act
(April 10) -- Do you ever worry about what's going on at your home when you're not there? Jeanne Thomas, 43, of Boynton Beach, Fla., wanted to keep tabs on her house from work, so she set up a webcam -- and she ended up foiling a gang of burglars.
Two men crawled through a doggie door to get into Thomas' house Wednesday, according to WPTV-5 in West Palm Beach, Fla.
As soon as Thomas noticed what was going on in the live stream, she called 911, and pleaded for help, telling the dispatcher that she had been robbed before. Police arrived at the home in minutes and surrounded the place. They arrested four men -- two who were inside the house and two others who were waiting in a getaway truck, police told WPTV. They said the men had more than $3,000 in goods.

The above video of the incident was posted by the police department. Audio from Thomas' 911 call accompanies the footage.
CBS' 'Early Show' spoke with Thomas about the break-in. "I was freaking," she told host Harry Smith. You can watch that video here:
