The expat observed what he thought was a light from a flashlight in the hallway at which time he got up to investigate. He discovered that a new laptop and cellphone had been stolen. The elderly victim explained he believes the burglar(s) took off when they heard him get up from bed. He also thinks the intruder(s) entered the residence with a key as there was no forced entry.
