Three laptops containing personal information on 11,500 children were
stolen earlier this month from a National Health Services office in the
United Kingdom and police are worried the information may fall into the
wrong hands.

The computers were taken from Primary Care Trust office on the afternoon of
Wednesday, March 21, according to an advisory from the Nottinghamshire
County NHS. The laptops contained the names, addresses and dates of birth
of child patients between the ages of 8 months and 8 years old.
