ARIZONA —
Israel Hyman told police he posted that he and his family were in Kansas City and were not at home.
Hyman's father stopped by his son's home while they were away and found that someone had broken in.
Hyman later tweeted that the robber stole his Mac computer, two displays and a printer.
The family is not completely sure if the message on the popular social networking site is what led to the burglary.
"We don't know for sure if that's what caused the break it in, but it sure gives you pause to think about what you're publicly going to broadcast on the internet," Hyman said.
Hyman said he will continue to tweet but says he'll be more careful about the information he shares.
