Rngtone points to suspect

According to The Star Tribune, a robber was identified because he didn't change the previous owner's distinctive ringtone.

"Minneapolis police arrested Vantrease on Monday after finding him wearing a Teckno Master watch matching the description of watches stolen in the May 24 robbery. In addition, Vantrease had a cell phone belonging to shop owner Will Bailey, authorities said.

Although the phone no longer carried Bailey's personal information, police said, it still had his ringtones, which included N.W.A.'s seminal "Gangsta Gangsta."
