Calif. man arrested for burglarizing Steve Jobs' home

California police arrested 35-year-old Kariem McFarlin for allegedly burglarizing Steve Jobs' Palo Alto home. He used a spare key to get inside and reportedly took Apple gadgets, $60,000 worth of Tiffany & Co. jewelry, Cristal champagne, a kitchen blender and Jobs' wallet.

Apple investigators were able to track down the suspect after he used the stolen devices to connect to the Internet with his own iTunes account, according to the San Jose Mercury News.

Police continued to investigate and searched McFarlin's Alameda apartment, where they found many of the items from the July 17 robbery. McFarlin reportedly confessed to the burglary and wrote an apology letter to Jobs' widow, saying he didn't realize whose house he was in.

Jobs, the Apple company co-founder, died last year at age 56.

McFarlin was arrested and charged with residential burglary and selling stolen property. He remained jailed with bail set at $500,000, pending an Aug. 20 court hearing, CBS San Francisco reports.
