MobileMe’s Find My iPhone feature assisted police officers track down men who robbed a Pittsburgh-area man over the weekend.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that the man, who was robbed by two other men of his iPhone, wallet, and PIN numbers for his credit cards early Sunday morning later used Find My iPhone to track the robbers to a nearby Wal-Mart where police said the suspects purchased goods using a stolen card.
