“Some feller’s out there, riflin’ through your things!”
Salt dropped his camera and equipment, racing for the door. Penny was close behind.
Reaching the alley, they were just in time to see a man in a dark suit ducking around the corner of the building.
“Hey, you!” shouted Salt angrily.
The man turned slightly and vanished from view.
“Wasn’t that the same fellow who was in the auto accident?” Penny demanded.
“Looked like him! Wonder if he got away with anything?”
“Didn’t you lock the car, Salt?”
“Only the rear trunk compartment. Should have done it but I was in a hurry.”
“Shall I call the police, Salt?”
