Ch.11 Getting Close

As Katie and Kevin walked home, Katie wrote down the name that matched the prints in her notebook. "Katie, do you really think Pablo Peruggia is the real thief?" asked Kevin.
Katie answered, "Yeah, I'm sure. Kevin, we should also try to find a picture of him. Then we'll print it out and show it to Ellie"
"Good idea. Now let's go home before Mom gets worried." Kevin responded.

Finally, Katie and Kevin returned home. Katie told her mom they were tired, and she walked to her room with Kevin. Kevin grabbed the computer from the bed and typed, "Pablo Peruggia" into the search engine. A news article popped up claiming that, Pablo Perugia had once robbed a bank. He was released from prison two years ago. Below the article, was a mug shot of a young man with black, short, and unkept hair. His skin was light colored and youthful. The man had small, brown eyes and had a serious expression on his face.

Katie said unexpectedly, "Kevin! Aren't you hungry? Let's sneak some snacks from the kitchen."
"First let's print the picture out," Kevin replied. Katie nodded and printed out the mug shot. Kevin ran to the printer and took out the photo. After placing the picture in the notebook, Kevin followed Katie down stairs to sneak some snacks. Katie grabbed a few crackers and walked with Kevin back to their room. About thirty minutes later, the two twins fell asleep, optimistic that they were getting closer to solving the case.
