TX: Sunglo Home Health Services computer with patient info stolen from office

Posted on January 22, 2015 by Dissent

KRGV reports:

Thousands of people throughout the Rio Grande Valley are in a vulnerable position because of a burglary.

Sunglo Home Health Services has thousands of patients across the Valley. Their personal information is in the hands of a Harlingen burglar.

[…]

According to Means, the man broke a window with a fire extinguisher and stole a computer.

That computer contained the Social Security numbers and personal information belonging to thousands of their patients.

There does not seem to be any statement on Sunglo’s web site as of the time of this posting, but Nora Salinas of ValleyCentral.com reports that although the burglar has been arrested, the stolen property had not been recovered, so the computer with patient info may still be out there somewhere.
