Carla Bruni pix stolen in 'banal burglary'
PARIS, April 28 (UPI) – Paris police say they do not believe the thieves who stole a laptop and digital camera knew they were loaded with pictures of Carla Bruni with a former lover.
Bruni, now the wife of President Nicolas Sarkozy, lived for several years with Raphael Enthoven, a photographer, and bore him a son, Aurelien. The computer and camera loaded with photos of Enthoven, Bruni and Aurelien, were taken during a burglary at the apartment of Enthoven's brother, The Daily Telegraph reported.
"It was a banal burglary," a police spokesman said. "Everything that was digital was stolen as is often the case."
If the thieves did not know what they had after got into Julien Enthoven's apartment through a window, they probably do now, given the publicity. Raphael Enthoven had reportedly entrusted the items to his brother for safekeeping.
(((Uh, yeah, sure. Maybe.)))
