iPhone Leads To LaBelle Arrest


Deputies Follow Signal To Port LaBelle

LABELLE, FL. -- Lee counties deputies had a fairly easy time apprehending a suspected thief Wednesday. After reporting two iPhones and chargers missing from his truck in Alva, victim Adam Troyer told investigators that he had a GPS application on his cell phone that should help locate the stolen phone.

Deputies and investigators were led by the GPS signal to Port LaBelle in Hendry county and started knocking on a few doors on Rainbow Circle. While questioning the occupant at 4041 Rainbow Cir., a second investigator outside began calling the missing iPhone's number, as a phone inside started ringing. Deputies tried it several times, and then arrested Eddie Deleon.

Deleon was booked into the Lee County Jail on two felony larceny-theft counts, two burglary counts, and violation of parole. Deleon is no stranger to the Lee jail system. He was arrested twice in 2009, the last time in December for violation of parole.

    I have all of my phones and computers set so that if they are stolen all they have to do is turn them on and we will find them.
