The wallet contained about $120 in cash and an identification card, Beachnau said.A 21-year-old female reported her digital camera stolen between July 5 and July 12 from her Spartan Village apartment. The woman, who was preparing to move out, initially noticed the camera missing, but thought it might be mixed in with her other belongings, Beachnau said.
