Drill:



I wonder how they figured out the model of the drill, unless the thieves left it behind.

Forensics is a bitch. Hell, there's a rumor we knew what personal tape player OBL used due to forensics. Nothing is insignificant.

Several years ago a local gun shop had a break-in.  The shop space had at one time a back room or another shop space butted up against it, and the old doorway was covered up with plywood paneling.  From the local gossip, they think the robbers either overheard the construction guys mention the doorway, or broke into the adjacent shop space in order to steal tools, then discovered the opening.

The article you linked says the drill was found at the scene.

The moral of the story is no matter how thick the walls are if they want to get in bad enough they'll get in.
