An Eastern University student is getting her computer back a few months after it was stolen. According to a police report, in January her Mac Book Pro was stolen from a room in McGinnis Hall. On April 7, she reported to police that she received a phone call from a man who told her he had her computer and wanted permission to conduct a service on it. She told him that the computer had been stolen, but the man refused to give the students the name of the client he was working for. He did agree to turn the computer over to his local police, Plymouth Township Police Department.
