  • Patriots wide receiver Chad Ochocinco solved a robbery earlier today with the help of social network Twitter. His wallet was stolen from his Escalade in the middle of the night. The thief busted out the window to get to the money.

    Ochocinco tweeted around 10 o’clock that someone had broken into his Escalade rental. He wasn’t as concerned about his credit cards and his ID as much as he was a Starbucks gold card that still had some money left on it.

    “Credit cards can be cancelled, I’m not trippin’. What I’m pissed about is these motherf**ckers took my Starbucks card. Not just any Starbucks card, I earned the Gold card. Do you know many coffees i had to drink and lemon loafs I had to purchase to get to that gold card.”

    In a strange twist, someone actually tweeted back to Ochocinco that they had found his wallet.

    Who found my wallet? What about my Starbucks card? Is it still in there? RT @jennacote: @ochocinco It was found in a parking lot ….

    But the power of social media came to the rescue.

    And in the end, Starbucks even offered to replace his card, so now all is right with the world.
