| Most of the people fleeing New Orleans stepped off planes in Salt Lake City with nothing more than a few bags of their belongings. But at least one person decided to take a bag filled with someone else's stuff: Jewelry valued between $5,000 to $10,000. Authorities believe the jewelry may have been stolen. Utah Highway Patrol Capt. Robert Anderson, head of security for the evacuees at Camp Williams, said the items were possibly looted. The jewelry still had price tags and nobody claimed it when authorities found it Sunday night at the Utah Air National Guard Base. The Utah Department of Public Safety was investigating. - Justin Hill |
