Apparently, IESB.net broke the news of the stolen Indy 4 items yesterday, complete with details that went unreported in LAT story we noted earlier, like that the thief was shopping around $2000 worth of the goodies to places like TMZ, and that an LAPD/FBI sting operation at the Standard nabbed the thief before any more of Lucas and Spielberg's secrets could leak out: "A meeting between the alleged thief and the unnamed online reporter was set up for 4:00pm at the Standard Hotel on Sunset Blvd. The sting went as planned and the arrest was made. The IESB has been told that the alleged thief was in possession of the stolen property." [IESB.net via The Hot Blog]
