Man Watches Home Get Robbed On His iPhone

It seems there is an app for everything these days and now comes a story of a Dallas man who saw his home being burglarized using his iPhone.
Vince Hunter was in Connecticut visiting his parents with his wife when his new $4.99 app he got two months ago to supplement his home security system sent him a text alerting him of movement inside his home. After a few clicks Hunter was able to watch a live feed of two gloved men throwing a brick through his glass patio door. They called 911 and soon police were swarming the home with guns drawn. Police were not able to nab the burglars but do have a description. They are believed to be involved in other home break ins.
