"It is actually a destination yoga place. On this LED screen where we can pick locations all around the world so people can feel like they are in a tropical destination while they're doing yoga," Petersen said. "A year and a half ago, we just wanted to try and do an adventure and started this."Petersen's business, as well as the Zao Asian Cafe and T-Mobile stores in the same shopping plaza, were broken into on Wednesday.
"Everything on this shelf was stolen," said Petersen while pointing to an empty shelf in the lobby. "Took some jewelry, some other merchandise, some electronics, iPads and stuff."So, when he checked his phone to track them, he saw right where they were. "I pulled my phone out to try and find my devices and sure enough there it was," he said. "I think he had to have taken them out of the case for it to connect to some network that was nearby."Justin Petersen used technology to find his stolen AirPods at this hotel in Woods Cross.
"I took the victim's phone. He allowed me to take it, and I kind of pinpointed an area of the hotel where I thought they might be," Woods Cross Police detective Kimberly Burton said."It was a game of hot and cold," said Burton. "I got close to a certain door, and it said, they're right here, you're getting close. And as I walked away, it said you're moving farther away."It turns out, he had a lot of items that were reported stolen.
"We found items related to some burglaries out of Bountiful, Centerville, and then there was some stolen items from a case out of Summit County as well," said Burton.He was on probation, free on bail while awaiting trial on charges related to other burglaries before this Woods Cross police case.He says, as a small business owner, he worked too hard to just let them go.
