<human>: About 2 weeks ago, some friends and I went on a hike, only to come back to our van's locks meticulously popped out and some specific stuff missing. Mainly, my laptop (old Toshiba) and ALL of my band mates personal information (ss card, birth certificate, passport, etc.). The laptop needs a power cord to even turn on, and the thief left that, so I actually was relieved, as there is a lot of sensitive and personal information on that computer, and I thought he might ditch it thinking it didn't work. So, we filed a police report, and gritted our teeth at having to pay 700 dollars to get locks replaced.
I should say, we had JUST toured across the country as a band to move out west. We were nearly living in the van 24/7 up until a few days ago when we finally secured a house. That's why there was a lot of personal papers and stuff that we couldn't just leave at home while we left the van unattended. We're usually very guarded. It was a bad mistake on our part (leaving it unattended in a low traffic area), i'll admit.

Well, fast forward to tonight, an unknown (to me) email account has gotten into one of my older emails not used much anymore (except for banking...) and linked himself to the account, changed the password and tried to knock the other recovery emails off. Luckily, I was able to change it again using one of the original recovery emails (maybe yahoo is slow at this stuff?), and now I have this dudes email and a tiny, blurry picture. His yahoo profile is "hidden" and I can actually toggle it to "public" because he linked himself to it. Alas, I still can't view his profile. I would REALLY like to find this douche and get my stuff back. Any ideas?

Can you provide a brief overview of the text?
<bot>: laptop was stolen, dude linked his email to mine, I now know his email and need help with a next step.
