After the two fled, Shaw found a duffel bag containing one of the crooks\u2019 cell phone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">\n<\/p><p>\u201cI heard this voice coming from inside the bag,\u201d Shaw said.  \u201cSo I picked up the phone and it was the burglar\u2019s wife.  She was like, \u2018Who\u2019s this?\u2019 I said, \u2018I\u2019m not going to tell you who it is.  Who are you?\u2019 She goes \u2018I\u2019m Lisa, the wife of the guy who owns the cell phone\u2019. I said, \u2018Describe him to me\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb10\">\n<\/p><p>The woman\u2019s description matched one of the two men who Shaw had witnessed running away from the vehicle.  Shaw said the woman was not impressed when she discovered what her erstwhile husband had been up getting up to in her absence, saying that she had not seen him since early in the afternoon and had no idea where he was or what he had been doing.  \u201cWell it looks like he\u2019s out on the town&#8230;  And the guy is just not that smart either,\u201d Shaw replied.<\/p>\n<p
