iPhone Stolen at Darien Playhouse Was Later in Norwalk

That "Find my iPhone" app can help police find a phone, but not by itself, as shown in this case.

A man lost his iPhone among the theater seats at Darien Playhouse the day after Christmas, and his "Find my iPhone" application showed that it later turned up in Norwalk.

The same day he lost it, the man searched the area where he had been sitting in the theater, he told police when he reported the phone stolen on Jan. 2, but didn't see it.

The "Find my iPhone" feature helps someone find the general area where an iPhone is located, but not the exact spot, so it can often help in an investigation but not by itself. The phone was last located in Norwalk, somewhere on Chatham Drive.
