http://www.newsnet5.com/news/13649077/detail.html A carjacking that took place late last month led to the theft of thousands of records and the potential risk for identity theft. The carjacking happened on West 25th Street two weeks ago. The thieves got away with the car and thousands of sensitive records, reported chief investigator Duane Pohlman. [...] Within the car was a computer memory stick filled with names and sensitive personal information on nearly 3,000 people who have received energy assistance from a county weatherization program. "It contained their name, address, phone number and Social Security number," said Cuyahoga County director of development Paul Oyaski.
