ORLANDO, Fla. -- A businessman in downtown Orlando used a motion-detecting Web cam to watch and grab images of a thief inside his home stealing his wife's bras and other items, according to police.

Investigators said Thomas Arline's home was recently broken into at the Lake Live Oak subdivision in eastern Orange County.

During the crime, a Web security cam was activated by motion in the house and began to send images to Arline's downtown office 20 miles away.

Arline said he was forced to watch as the thief grabbed a notebook computer, an X-box and other items.

However, Arline said the most disturbing part of the crime was when the culprit took his bed pillows and five of his wife's bras.

"That goes beyond a little bit past creepy," Arline said. "That goes past being a little bit weird. That goes to scary. Scary is what I call it."

When deputies arrived after a 911 call from Arline, the teen was nowhere to be found.

The culprit is described as a Hispanic man between 15 and 18 years old. He weighs about 160 pounds and is around 5 feet 7 inches tall.

Detectives believe that the teen was familiar with the area.

"Those types of crimes where you go deep into a community tends to be somebody that lives on that street or close to that neighborhood so they can exit quickly and go inside their house without being detected," Orange County sheriff's Detective Michale McKenzie said.
